Hyderabad, January 27: In a chilling incident, the body of a young man was discovered on Monday morning along the Musi canal road between Jangaon and Pillalamarri. The victim has been identified as Vadlakandla Krishna, a resident of Mamillagadda village in Suryapet district. Krishna, who had recently married a woman from a different caste just six months ago, was found brutally murdered.
Preliminary reports indicate that Krishna was killed by repeated blows to the head with a stone. Authorities suspect the murder occurred at a different location, with the body later being dumped by the roadside near the canal bund. Locals passing by the area found the body and immediately alerted the police.
The Suryapet deputy superintendent of police stated that an investigation is underway. While an inter-caste marriage is being probed as a possible motive, investigators are also exploring other angles.
This heinous crime has sent shockwaves through the local community, with many calling for swift justice. Krishna’s inter-caste marriage has raised suspicions of caste-related violence, a recurring issue in parts of Telangana. However, police officials have urged the public to await the findings of the ongoing investigation before drawing conclusions.
The incident has reignited discussions about the safety of individuals entering inter-caste marriages, with activists stressing the need for greater protection and awareness. As the investigation progresses, the police are expected to release further updates.
Local residents and community leaders have condemned the brutal act, demanding a thorough inquiry and stringent action against those responsible.
Anyone with information regarding the case is urged to come forward and assist law enforcement in their efforts to deliver justice for Vadlakandla Krishna.
