Bhanu Kiran Refused to Wear Black Mask Before Media

Seems like, Bhanu Kiran is enjoying all the attention he has been getting after the murder of factionist Maddelacheruvu Suri. When the CID officials insisted him to wear a black cloth to cover his face to produce him before the media, Bhanu refused to do so.

Instead, he questioned the sleuths "Why do you want me to wear the mask? and What do you want to prove by doing so? Everyone knows me very well and there is nothing to hide". He also hinted that if he was produced before the media with a mask, the CID officials will land in trouble. "Media and the people might think that the cops have produced someone else in the name of Bhanu, to divert the some other issue or to close Suri's murder case file," he said.
Initially, the CID officials feared that producing Bhanu without covering his face might trigger violence in Anantapur district. Although the cops had planned to produce Bhanu before the media for just a few minutes, the pressure mounted by mediapersons has forced them to prolong it till the end of pressmeet. In fact, Bhanu's free advice about the mask has shocked the CID officials as they had never experienced such thing before.
