‘Real prosecutors don’t target people’: Indian-American Saritha Komatireddy jibes at Letitia James over ‘

Saritha Komatireddy, an Indian-American candidate for a New York judicial seat, took aim at state Attorney General Letitia James, saying real prosecutors do not target people. The remark came amid ongoing legal actions by James against former President Donald Trump.

Komatireddy, who is running for a judgeship in New York, made the statement in a social media post. She did not specify which case she was referring to but appeared to criticize James for what she described as politically motivated prosecutions.

The comment has drawn attention to the race for the judicial seat, where Komatireddy is challenging an incumbent. Her campaign has focused on judicial impartiality and the rule of law.

James's office has not responded to Komatireddy's remarks. The attorney general has pursued several high-profile cases against Trump and his businesses, which have been criticized by some as partisan.
