One year after mysterious Kazipet murder, cops still clueless
Though it is a year since the gruesome murder, the police have not been able to find any clue or motive that could lead to the killer.
Warangal: The mysterious murder of a 68-year-old woman Kona Vijaya from Rahmat Nagar in Kazipet area has become a challenge for the police. Though it is a year since the gruesome murder, the police have not been able to find any clue or motive that could lead to the killer.
Vijaya left her house on December 14 last year in the morning and was found dead in a side alley after midnight. Vijaya’s body was not properly dressed and her gold jewelry was missing. Earlier in the day, Vijaya’s son filed a missing complaint with the police with the help of locals. The police investigated the matter but could not find her whereabouts. In the meantime, the killer is suspected to have kidnapped Vijaya, beaten her to death and cleaned the body with soap before dumping it in the alley next to her house at midnight. It is believed that the killer cleaned the body to destroy the evidence.
After receiving information about the murder of Vijaya, members of the CLUES team and dog squad personnel reached the scene and intensified their efforts to find evidence. Initially, the police thought that the case could be solved easily, but as days passed, it turned out into quite a tough mystery for them. The police team questioned over 100 people, but could not find any lead or even motive behind the murder. The original team, which investigated the murder has been transferred, and a new team is now investigating the case.
Warangal Commissioner of Police Amber Kishor Jha has been exerting pressure on the investigating team to resolve the issue, but so far they have not been able to find any clue on the killer. In fact, the Police Commissioner asks about the status of Vijaya murder case in every crime review meeting, but with not much coming from the investigating team.
The police officials are expecting the new team to get some breakthrough in the case in the coming days.
