Though the 23-year-old woman, a resident of Ramnagar in Hanamkonda, pleaded with him to marry her, he had reportedly turned down her plea and had been avoiding her for quite some time now. Sources said a panchayat was also held and he agreed to marry her, but he did not turn up at the marriage venue twice. Following this, the victim lodged a complaint with the Subedari police seeking justice. Taking serious note of the allegations over the SI, Warangal Police commissioner Promod Kumar directed the Subedari police to take the action as per the procedure.

Following this, the police registered a case against Mahender, a native of Srirampur town of Mancherial district, in September this year under IPC 376 (2) (N), and 420, and took up the investigation. Meanwhile, Pramod Kumar, who is also Karimnagar Range incharge DIG, issued the orders of suspension on Sunday.
