Manchu Manoj has finally broken his silence after reports of being taken into police custody. On Monday, several reports claimed that Manoj was taken into police custody. Now, in a video statement, he expressed his views about the crises that he faced while standing up for causes he believes in. 

Manchu Manoj gives video statement about police custody

In a video statement shared by Telugu One on X, Manoj is seen saying, "You have seen what's been happening the last few months, from around December 2024. I have been fighting for the students and people working at our college. Instead of addressing that me, my family have been targeted. Numerous attempts are being made to indirectly threaten me in hope I'll get scared. I haven't done anything wrong to be scared. Around 32 cases have been filed by numerous people on me and my wife from Delhi, Tirupati and other places. There's only one version of the truth and numerous versions of a lie. I stick by what I previously said. My family is using bouncers to abuse college kids and others. I have provided all proof to Chandragiri CI."

Manchu says he was being misunderstood

He went on to add, "Those who are trying to file complaints are being sent back for silly reasons. The police tried to question us last night too at the resort we were staying at, claiming they were sent by the CM. When I questioned them, they changed their tune and said they came to me after finishing CM's work and I misunderstood. After that I went to the station willingly because I wanted everything on record. I waited for them to talk to me there but no one seemed interested to do so at the station. If something like this can happen to me imagine the plight of those I'm fighting for.”

Manchu's fallout with his father Mohan Babu has been in the news for the last few months. Last year, after a long hiatus of eight years, Manoj returned to the silver screen with 'Mirai' directed by Karthik Ghattamaneni.
