The police in Telangana’s Nalgonda have cracked the sensational murder case of a 48-year-old school principal and arrested two students who allegedly planned the crime for money and lavish spending.
We investigated who she could have been referring to, and this led us towards the school students,” senior police officer Sharath Chandra Pawar told reporters on Wednesday. Her body was recovered when her husband, who was away in Hyderabad, informed neighbours that she was not responding to his phone calls. The neighbours alerted the police, who found her dead. “The last word recorded during her conversation was ‘Babu’. Police suspect this may have contributed to resentment against the principal.
The victim, Kallu Roopa Reddy , the principal and director of Nagarjuna Public School in Kondamallepally, was found dead with 27 stab wounds at her residence in Kondamallepally on the morning of August 12. The police then formed five teams and examined CCTV footage, forensic evidence, fingerprints, technical data and the movements of suspects and questioned over 80 people.
