rowdy sheeter

Repeat offender with 17 NDPS cases held; lodged in Shivamogga central jail

A chilling case from Vijayawada has culminated in a life sentence for Chandavolu Rajashekar, convicted of killing Gummadi Prakash Rao in a violent incident that took place in 2024.

A hit-and-run investigation in Bengaluru unraveled a murder plot orchestrated by a "rowdy sheeter" and a potato-chip-loving assassin. The duo, along with accomplices, staged an accident to kill a woman and steal Rs 30 lakh from her home. The plan was foiled when neighbors caught one intruder, and CCTV footage revealed the "accident" was a deliberate act.

Palnadu police recently undertook a crucial cordon and search initiative in the heart of Pinneli village, where they successfully recovered 32 bikes without proper documentation as well as a collection of weapons, including axes and sickles. This proactive effort is part of a broader strategy to combat criminal activities and restore order in a region marked by factional tensions.

A journalist, Jaganmohan Reddy, was brutally stabbed to death during his morning walk in V Kota, Chittoor district. Assailants on bikes attacked him before fleeing. The incident has sparked protests, with journalists and local leaders demanding swift arrests. Police suspect involvement of a rowdy sheeter, possibly linked to Reddy's reports on smuggling activities.
