Based on these findings, investigators included Naik as the seventh accused in the case.Although multiple notices were earlier issued directing him to appear for questioning, Naik failed to comply. Police even arrested him in Patna, Bihar, but were unable to bring him to Andhra Pradesh due to the absence of a transit warrant.Subsequently, Naik approached the Andhra Pradesh high court seeking anticipatory bail. The court directed him to appear before the investigating officer and cooperate with the inquiry from March 5 to March 9.
