A 21-year-old man was arrested by Jagadgirigutta Police along with Special Operations Team and Central Crime Station officials for allegedly murdering his acquaintance in Venkateshwara Nagar. Police said Reddy strangled her, stole jewellery and cash, and staged the death as an accident to cover his tracks.
Fourteen polling stations were classified as Maoist-affected ones, which would be under the protection of Central armed forces. The voting at these stations would be webcast, besides being under CCTV surveillance.
