Hyderabad: Three persons who were involved in the murder of a person from Karmanghat after kidnapping him from Charminar continued to be on the run from law, despite several police teams trying to track them down.
Madhusudhan Reddy, a native of Siddipet who was running a tiffin centre at Karmanghat, was allegedly kidnapped on August 19 from Petlaburj and taken in a car to Zaheerabad by one Sanjay Kumar and two other suspects where he was murdered. His body was buried in a farmhouse there by the killers, police said, adding that Reddy was involved in several cases including a NDPS case at Tenali in Andhra Pradesh.
Reddy, according to the complaint lodged by his relatives with the Charminar police, had gone to Petlaburj to meet Sanjay Kumar and later went missing. During the probe, the police caught one Jagannath, Sanjay Kumar’s driver, and found that Reddy was taken to Kohir in Zaheerabad and killed. A police team later exhumed the body from the farmhouse where it was buried.
Since the murder, Sanjay Kumar and two other persons involved in the case are absconding. Police teams have so far scoured various districts in the two Telugu States and also in the neighbouring Karnataka and Maharashtra to nab them.
Relatives have the police that Sanjay Kumar owed Reddy some money and that he had gone to discuss the issue when he was taken to Sangareddy and murdered. Police said Reddy was previously involved in a ganja case registered in Andhra Pradesh along with Sanjay Kumar, which could also have triggered differences between them. He was also involved in several criminal cases in Siddipet and was also detained under the PD Act there.
