Earlier, police led by ACP Umender took the accused to the murder spot near Kalvacherla in Ramagiri mandal for reconstructing the scene.

Though the three were to be produced before the court during the day, it was delayed as they had to undergo Covid tests in the Godavarikhani area hospital. Meanwhile, Bittu Srinivas, who was arrested by the police for arranging vehicle and sickles, was also questioned.
