The incident took place two days ago, but it came to light only when the State Police Officers Association took up the matter and demanded immediate arrest of the MLA.
This is a second such incident in the district this month. Earlier, a case was registered against TDP MLA from Denduluru, Chintamaneni Prabhakar, for allegedly assaulting an assistant sub-inspector and some other police personnel.
Radha Krishna, against whom a case of wrongful restraint (section 342) and assault or criminal force to public servant (section 353) of IPC was registered by Tanuka rural police, denied the charges.
The matter relates to a land dispute. Four days ago, police arrested six TDP and three YSRC men following a clash between two groups.
