CID officers begin investigation in Vantamuri assault case

Officers of the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) began investigation of the Hosa Vantamuri village incident wherein a woman was stripped and assaulted by relatives of a woman with whom her son fell in love.

On Wednesday, the officers sought custody of three accused in the case. The court has granted their custody to the CID. They are likely to be transferred to the custody of CID officers for further investigation.

“Two of them are relatives of the woman who ran away for safety. One of them is a friend of her father. Two of the accused have been presidents of the gram panchayat in the past. They have been accused of murder in the past. They are out on bail. We have sought cancellation of their bail,” an officer said.
