Telangana: Banjara Hills Police register case after woman entrepreneur alleges threat using political influence

Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], September 20 (ANI): Banjara Hills Police have registered a case on a complaint filed by advertising agency owner against one Vijay Reddy of a digital marketing agency and others for alleged abusive behaviour, threats and insulting remarks.
According to the FIR copy, the complaint was received on 02.05.2026 at 1900 hours from Kalvala Shoba, 38, proprietor of an advertising agency, resident of Dilsukhnagar.
In her complaint, Kalvala Shoba stated that for the past few days, Vijay Reddy, along with others, had been speaking to her in an abusive and inappropriate manner, causing mental stress and damage to her reputation.

"When I questioned Vijay Reddy regarding the false and defamatory statements being spread about me, he threatened me, stating that he would continue doing so and 'see my end'. He further stated that his brother, Balmuri Venkat (MLC), would support him and said that, being a woman, I could not do anything against him. He openly threatened me using political influence. I have life threat from him," the complaint reads.
