Police seize an SUV allegedly used in committing the crime, a motorcycle, and three mobile phones from the accused, confiscate a boulder and blood-stained clothes from the crime scene
The Sri Sathya Sai district police have arrested three individuals, including YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) president Gadipudi Gangadhar Naidu, in connection with the murder of Dasari Srinivasulu. The accused were identified as Naidu, Bala Charan Kumar, and Gujjala Gangadhar, also known as Erikili Gangadhar. All three are residents of Dharmavaram.
According to the police, Naidu and Srinivasulu, who were childhood friends and political allies, had a falling out that included a dispute over financial matters. Naidu reportedly conspired to murder Srinivasulu due to the belief that he posed a threat. The trio allegedly took Srinivasulu in a vehicle to a waterbody where he was attacked with a stick and a stone before his body was disposed of in the water.
Police have seized the vehicle, a motorcycle, and three mobile phones from the accused. They also confiscated a stone and blood-stained clothes from the crime scene. The accused have been sent for remand.
