Exactly four days after the gory dishonour killing of Dalit engineer in Telangana’s Miryalaguda town, the state police on Tuesday arrested to all the culprits, including the girl's father. The killer, who actually carried out the murder, is from Bihar's Samasthpur. Shocking details have emerged from the investigation. 

According to the police, father of the girl, Maruti Rao, who was strongly against the marriage of his daughter with a man from scheduled caste, kept on telling her the he wants things to return to normal between the families. 

Amrutha Varshini, the pregnant woman who saw murder of her husband, said that, ‘it's shocking how my father planned and murdered my husband while making me believe all the while that he was trying to reconcile to our marriage.’

The police also said that the fatal attack on Perumalla Pranay Kumar on September 14 was not the first one. Maruti Rao had previously also planned similar attacks on his son-in-law. Two unsuccessful attempts were made on Pranay's life in last two months. First one was in July first week and the second one in August.

Unravelling the murder mystery, Nalgonda Superintendent of Police AV Ranganath disclosed that right from the day his daughter Amruta married Pranay, Maruthi Rao held a grudge and had been planning to kill Pranay as he was from Scheduled Caste. Maruthi Rao's resolve got stronger when he learnt that Amrutha was pregnant with Pranay's child. 

‘Maruti Rao through his friend Abdul Karim contacted Asghar Ali and Mohd Bari to kill Pranay. The supari (contract of murder) was fixed for Rs 1e crore. An advance of Rs 15 lakh was paid. Both Asghar Ali and Mohd Bari then hatched a plan and contacted supari killer Subash Sharma of Bihar whom they had met in Rajahmundry Central Jail during trial of former Gujarat Home Minister Haren Pandya's murder,’ disclosed the SP.

In fact, ‘On September 14, after proper planning, Pranay was killed in front of Jyothi Nursing home in Miryalaguda in broad daylight around 1.30 pm. While Subash Sharma carried out the killing hacking Pranay with machete, Asghar and Bari supervised the entire action. Maruti Rao tried to create an alibi by making himself seen in neighbouring Nalgonda town. However, we joined all the dots caught all of them,’ revealed SP Ranganath.

All accused including T Sravan ( Maruti Rao's brother ) and Shiva Goud (Maruti Rao’s driver) have been booked for murder along with SC, ST Atrocities Acts.
