They along with some others have slaughtered cows in an abandoned poultry shed along Sircilla road near Nagadevatha Temple in Siddipet town on Friday evening.

Upon receiving information from the locals, the police rushed to the spot and sent the bodies for postmortem besides shifting the remaining live cows to Goshaala. The accused, who confessed to have slaughtered the cows three times at the same place earlier, told the police that they used to buy old cows from markets in Siddipet and Karimnagar districts to supply the meat to a trader in Hyderabad.
