Authorities claimed that these women had been brought into the U.S. illegally and were forced to work under deplorable conditions.
As a result, charges were filed against the Telugu individuals – Chandan Dasireddy, Santosh Katkoori, Dwarka Gunda, and Anil Malega – and they were arrested by Texas police.

However, it has recently come to light that the Princeton police sent a letter to the Attorney’s office stating they were withdrawing the charges.
The women involved in the case spoke to the media, denying claims that they were brought into the country illegally or were forced to work, which likely led to the retraction of the accusations.
Interestingly, while the charges were retracted, the Princeton police department has not made a public statement about this development.
The media had previously reported on the arrest warrants issued for the individuals, but now the case details are being withheld.
Netizens have been questioning how the reputations of these individuals can be restored after such public allegations.
It is also worth noting that the police department has confirmed that the investigation is ongoing but has not made any public statement regarding the retraction of the charges.
Meanwhile, the lawyer representing the four Telugu individuals has requested that the Princeton police openly clarify the situation, given that the charges have now been proven false.
