Both parties have been asked to come to the police station for questioning.Rachakonda commissioner G. Sudheer Babu clarified that every commissioner has the authority to act as an additional district magistrate and work towards restoring peace during such disturbances.Meanwhile, Mohan Babu was discharged from a hospital and released an audio message in which he expressed regret for his actions and called for consideration of the fairness of the one-sided portrayal, as well as the legality of breaking into someone’s house.Mohan Babu wondered: “Is it right for others to intervene in family matters without consent? For the past four days, the media has been stationed outside my house, including live vans. Why did they come to my house without permission? Are they truly media personnel or people with a personal grudge holding microphones?”On the journalist who was attacked, the actor said “He is like a brother to me. I can feel the pain his wife and children must be going through. I seek fairness and justice.”
