Speaking to the media, Ramya Sri expressed outrage and fear, stating that the attackers attempted to murder her and her brother. “This happened in broad daylight, right in front of a police station. If we are not safe here, where are we safe?” she asked.
Plea for Police Action Against Sandhya Convention’s Sridhar Rao
Ramya Sri also made a public appeal to the police to take immediate action against Sridhar Rao, alleging that his repeated encroachments and violent intimidation tactics have created a climate of fear among legitimate landowners in the area.
Police Begin Investigation
The Gachibowli Police have registered a complaint and initiated an investigation into the incident. Further action is expected following the identification and arrest of the accused involved in the attempted assault and land encroachment.
The incident has raised serious concerns about the safety of property owners and the increasing brazenness of land grabbers in Hyderabad’s prime localities.
