According to police reports, Boddupalli Prashanth, who works as a video editor at the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) office near KBR Park Chowrasta, was attacked with sticks and iron rods by Praveen, a former employee, and his associate Sasikiran.

Harassment Incident Sparked the Assault

Investigations revealed that the incident stemmed from a case of harassment involving a female colleague. After being dismissed from his position due to inappropriate behavior, Praveen reportedly shared the woman’s contact number with Sasikiran, who then began harassing her via text messages.
