The Anantapur police claimed to have foiled an alleged revenge murder plan, in which the mastermind had allegedly given a “supari” of ₹8 lakh to three persons.
Deputy Superintendent of Police A. Srinivasulu told mediapersons here on Monday that a 49-year-old woman, Jyothi, reportedly wanted to take the revenge for her son’s (Dhanaraj) alleged murder by one Vamsi Reddy in Srinivasa Ramanujan Institute Of Technology, a private engineering college, six years ago, and allegedly gave an advance of ₹2 lakh to Talari Nagaraju, 35, Mandala Gangadhar, 37, and A. Suresh, 38.
The three accused had allegedly planned to kill Vamsi while on his morning walk, the DSP said and added that based on credible information, the IV Town police kept a watch in the entire area and nabbed the three while they were on the motorcycle.
