AMARAVATI: Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu has assured the family of the murdered girl in Punganur, Chittoor district, that justice will be served and support will be provided. He urged the family members to stay strong during this difficult time.
On Sunday, State Home Minister Vangalapudi Anitha, along with Ministers Farooq and Ramprasad Reddy, visited Punganur to meet the grieving family and offer their condolences.
During the visit, the girl's family was connected with Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu over the phone. Naidu expressed his deep sorrow over the unfortunate incident and offered his assurances of support.
Home Minister Anitha provided additional details, noting that the girl had gone missing on September 29, and the complaint was lodged later that same night at 11 PM. She stated that SP Manikanta Chandolu had immediately formed eleven teams to search for the missing child.
Three days later, the girl’s body was found. The preliminary medical reports, according to Dr. Anitha, indicated that there was no evidence of sexual assault. The minister confirmed that three suspects have been arrested in connection with the case, while efforts are ongoing to apprehend two more individuals.
The Home Minister also criticised Y. S. Jagan Mohan Reddy for attempting to politicise the incident, stating that it was inappropriate to use such a tragic case for political gains.
