The police arrested a 19-year-old youth in connection with the murder of a 16-month-old boy at Pamur in Prakasam district on September 5 (Tuesday).
The police were clueless for a couple of days after the baby, M. Sathvik, went missing on August 31 (Thursday) as none had made any demand for ransom. Acting on a complaint lodged by the baby’s mother and grandmother with the Pamur police, Prakasam Superintendent of Police Malika Garg formed special teams under the supervision of Additional Superintendent of Police S.V. Sridhar Rao.
