He is the accused number four in the case and has been stationed in the Rajahmundry Central Jail. The Court remanded him till August 1st, and it is likely to be extended.
Mithun Reddy is the closest person to Jagan Reddy. There is no one to care for him after the arrest.
Jagan Mohan Reddy has not come to AP since Mithun Reddy was arrested. It is not even known whether he will visit him or not.
Big Relief for Jagan, Sharmila in Shock!
Although there are three chances of meetings a week, except for family members, no one is coming to Rajahmundry to meet him.
Mithun Reddy is the son of Peddireddy Rama Chandra Reddy, who is the Strong man of the party in Rayalaseema.

Even then, the party did not organize any protest after his arrest.
Some people simply held a press meet and disappeared later after making allegations that it is a case of political vendetta.,
Some senior leaders did not even say these words.
Jagan Mohan Reddy has gone silent by posting a tweet. There is no small protest anywhere. With these developments, it is believed that the YSRCP has completely distanced itself from Mithun Reddy.
His family members have shifted to Rajahmundry and are meeting him regularly.
According to SIT, the main accused (A-1) Raj Kasireddy used to collect Rs 50-60 crore every month and hand over the amount to YSRCP MP Mithun Reddy (A-4), then YSRCP leader Vijayasai Reddy (A-5), Bharathi Cements Director Govindappa Balaji (A-33), who looked after the financial affairs of Jagan's wife Bharathi.
They used to transfer the money to Jagan from time to time. It has come to light that Rs 3,500 crore was looted in this way.
Probably, Jagan is afraid of his own arrest next, and so everything to other leaders appear small for him.
Political Observers say Chandrababu Naidu would not have dared to arrest a big leader like Mithun Reddy unless he is 100% sure that they have all the necessary evidence.
In the previous regime, Chandrababu was arrested in a petty case, but the YSR Congress is claiming that they do not have to prove it.
But it is very early in the new government, and Chandrababu can not move so swiftly without evidence. So, that means trouble to everyone, including Jagan.
