The prime suspect in the case, Rakesh Reddy, is in jail. According to the police, Rakesh Reddy who has been in judicial remand since February 2019, with a malicious intention to get acquittal in the case, plotted to threaten the public prosecutors and witnesses to keep away from the case.
For this, Rakesh induced Akbar and his friends Guptha and Srinvas by offering huge amounts to cooperate with him. They then sent handwritten letters to people threatening them. Based on a complaint, a case was booked and the suspects were held.
