Sangu was booked for peddling banned ganja in the past. The victim was Bavuri Shajas, the son of Chandini from Jafarnagar in Mancherial district headquarters.

Sangu admitted that he committed the offence to overcome his financial crisis and to make a fast buck, with the help of the four. He confessed to abducting the 21-months old boy. He revealed that they lifted the toddler when he was asleep with his mother in front of their residence, in an auto-rickshaw on June 2 early morning. He disclosed that he had sold his baby to someone of Hyderabad for Rs 1.50 lakh in the past.
