In a shocking incident, some errant private moneylenders allegedly tried to obstruct the last rites of the father of a borrower in a bid to exert pressure on the latter to repay the loan with interest in Metpalli town of Jagtial district on December 17.
According to sources, the borrower, a resident of Chaitanya Nagar, was unable to clear the mounting debt burden of around ₹1.70 crore and had reportedly fled the town a few weeks ago.
His father died due to ill health at their residence in Metpalli on Dec. 16 evening.
