Continuing their crackdown on ‘land grabbing activities’, the Karimnagar rural police on Tuesday booked four persons including former sarpanch of Chintakunta, Pittala Ravinder, and the then Tahsildar Mohan Reddy on charges of attempting to usurp a private land at Chintakunta using forged documents.

Based on a complaint from Rajdevidas Rao, the police have registered a case against Ravinder, Mohan Reddy, Gaddam Adi Reddy and N Rajaiah under sections 467, 468, 471, 409, 420, 447, 427, 341, 506, 120 b r/w 34 of the IPC.
