Woman killed after asking man to marry her

According to police, Manasa and Vinod were childhood friends and had been in a relationship. Manasa had previously been married and divorced twice.

Police said the two met at Vinod's rented room in Karimnagar on August 17. During their meeting, Manasa allegedly insisted that they should get married.

Vinod then allegedly contacted Manasa's father, Rajesham, and told him about their conversation.

Kazipet ACP P Prashanth Reddy said Rajesham was allegedly upset and believed his daughter's actions were damaging the family's reputation among relatives. Police allege that he asked Vinod to pick a quarrel with Manasa and kill her.

Vinod allegedly strangled Manasa

Following the alleged conversation, Vinod strangled Manasa to death, police said.

He allegedly placed her body inside the boot of a car and drove to Elkathurthy village. The vehicle was then parked in an isolated area while he allegedly waited for an opportunity to dispose of the body.

The car belonged to T Sadanandam, a resident of Elkathurthy. During the investigation, police traced the vehicle's use to Vinod through his brother, Bhaskar Reddy, who had rented it.

Foul smell from car leads to discovery

On August 20, local residents reportedly noticed a foul smell coming from the parked vehicle and alerted police.

Elkathurthy Inspector Puli Ramesh and his team reached the spot and found Manasa's decomposed body inside the car boot. Her body was shifted to MGM Hospital in Warangal for a post-mortem examination.

Police said Vinod initially claimed that Manasa had suffered a seizure and died in his rented room, and that he panicked and moved her body.

However, during questioning, he allegedly disclosed that he had strangled her and revealed the alleged involvement of her father.

Police continue investigation

Vinod was produced before a court on Monday. Police are continuing their investigation into the killing and examining the allegations concerning Manasa's father.

The police allegations have not yet been tested in court, and further action will depend on the evidence gathered during the investigation.

Kids invited inside showroom

Seeing their excitement, the showroom owner asked his staff to invite the children inside so they could take more pictures with other Lamborghini. The two immediately walked in with huge smiles and began posing beside the supercars.

The boy appeared especially fascinated. At one point, he tried to pose alone beside a blue Lamborghini, while his sister repeatedly came into the frame. He also pointed towards the Lamborghini logo, looked closely at the car and appeared curious about its interior.

Both children were also seen inspecting the tyres, windows before continuing their little showroom tour.

'Pure joy' wins hearts online

The video was shared by the showroom owner with the caption 'The PURE JOY of kids clicking pictures with Lamborghini's in KAVACA Hyderabad showroom'.

He also said that seeing their excitement for supercars was special and promised to give them a Lamborghini ride on their next visit.

The gesture quickly struck a chord with social media users.

One person wrote, "God make sure one day they will be the owner of those cars." Another said, "That boy will buy that one day."

A viewer praised the showroom team, saying they were happy with the way the staff treated the children and thanked them for making their wish come true.

Others focused on the innocence of the moment. One comment read, "Never say no to innocent smiles."

Another user joked about the playful sibling dynamic as the sister kept entering her brother's solo frame.

Beautifully indeed, the charm of the video is in the simplicity of two children stopping for a photograph and a small act of kindness turning that moment into an experience they are unlikely to forget.

Viral Video: Techie Handles Massive Python Outside Hyderabad Office, Rides Away With It

Divya Danu — Fri, 18 Sep 2026 13:16:29 +0530

A giant python spotted outside an IT company in Hyderabad's Durgam Cheruvu area has caught attention after a video showing a man carrying the snake went viral on social media.

Man picks up python outside office

A video circulating on social media shows a man approaching the huge python instead of staying away from it. According to claims accompanying the video, the man is a software professional. In the footage, he can be seen getting close to the python and appearing to pick it up with his hands. He then places the snake around his shoulders, leaving people nearby visibly surprised.

For many onlookers, the sight was unusual. While most people would normally maintain a safe distance from a large snake, the man appeared comfortable handling it.

The video continues with the man walking while carrying the python on his shoulders. He is later seen apparently taking the snake away on a two-wheeler.

The footage has triggered discussion online, with some viewers expressing surprise at the man's actions. Others have raised questions about the risks involved in handling such a large snake without professional assistance. The unusual incident sparked humor on social media, with netizens jokingly quipping that as a software engineer, he naturally had no trouble handling "Python."

There is, however, no confirmed information about where the python was taken after the incident. It is also not clear from the available footage whether the snake was later released at a safe location.

Experts' help important in snake rescues

The video may appear unusual or exciting, but handling a large snake without proper training can be dangerous for both the person and the animal. Wildlife rescue teams and trained handlers are generally better equipped to deal with such situations.

At present, details about the python's rescue and its eventual location remain unclear. Any official information from wildlife authorities or a trained rescue team would help establish what happened after the snake was taken away.

Toddler allegedly lured away with chocolate

According to police, the incident took place at around 10.30 am on September 5. The child was in a hospital corridor with his elder brother when an unidentified woman allegedly approached them. Police said the toddler was lured with a chocolate before being taken away from the hospital premises.

The boy’s elder brother informed their parents about what had happened. By then, the woman had reportedly left the hospital with the toddler.

The family then approached the police, following which a kidnapping case was registered.

CCTV footage helps police track suspects

Following the complaint, Nizamabad police formed special teams involving Town-I Police, the Central Crime Station (CCS), crime personnel and technical teams. Teams were sent to several locations, including Hyderabad, Kamareddy and Nanded in Maharashtra, as officers worked to trace the missing child, according to a report by Indian Express.

Police examined CCTV footage from the hospital and other locations along with technical evidence gathered during the investigation.

The search continued through the night, with officers following leads about the suspected kidnappers and the child’s whereabouts.

Child rescued in Sangareddy

The investigation eventually led police to Daulatabad in Sangareddy district. With assistance from Sangareddy police, officers located the child at the Daulatabad bus stand within 24 hours of his alleged abduction. A couple suspected of being involved in the kidnapping was arrested.

The accused were identified as Kothati Sujatha and Yallam, both natives of Nizamapet village in Sangareddy district. Vedansh was safely brought back to Nizamabad.

Police commissioner hands child back to father

Nizamabad Police Commissioner P Sai Chaitanya announced the rescue at One Town police station on Sunday evening. The child was handed over to his father, Naresh, after being safely brought back.

In a lighter moment following the tense rescue, the commissioner also presented Vedansh with a toy gun and chocolates. The successful operation brought an end to the family’s anxious search for the toddler, barely a day after he disappeared from the hospital.

Woman falls under bus after collision

According to the details available, the TGSRTC bus collided with the Rapido bike while Hemadurga was travelling as a passenger.

The impact threw her onto the road, after which she came under the wheels of the bus. She died at the spot.

The Rapido rider was seriously injured in the crash and was taken to a hospital for treatment.

The CCTV footage shows the events immediately before the collision. However, the footage alone does not establish whether speeding, negligence or a traffic violation caused the accident. Police are investigating the circumstances leading to the crash.

TGSRTC driver taken into custody

Panjagutta Police reached the accident spot after being alerted. They shifted Hemadurga's body to the mortuary and began an investigation.

The RTC bus driver was reportedly taken into custody and booked under provisions relating to death caused by rash and negligent driving, along with relevant sections of the Motor Vehicles Act.

The investigation will determine how the collision happened and whether any traffic rules were violated.

CCTV footage sparks debate online

The CCTV footage has also prompted reactions on social media, with some users raising concerns about the safety of city buses and driving practices.

One X user alleged that some TGSRTC drivers do not follow signals, use indicators while changing lanes or drive safely, and called for the RTC to be privatised.

Another user argued that city buses should be smaller, saying longer buses can face difficulties while navigating city roads.

The comments reflect public concern following the crash, but the allegations made online have not been independently established in connection with this particular accident.

Police are continuing to investigate the fatal collision.

'Call your senior'

In the video, the truck driver is seen questioning two men who allegedly ask him to pay money. He appears to object to what he describes as repeated demands for cash from truck drivers and insists that a senior official should be brought in.

“Tell me where your senior is,” the driver is heard saying during the confrontation.

He also questions why truck drivers are expected to pay money when no one appears to question those collecting it. The men allegedly avoid giving him a clear answer and ask him to leave without making further payment.

The driver, however, continues to press them for an explanation.

The video has also drawn attention to the appearance of one of the men.

He is seen wearing what appears to be a khaki shirt and trousers but has no visible name plate or cap. He is also wearing slippers.

According to the caption accompanying the video, the man claimed to be involved in Excise-related checking. A second person, described in the post as a private individual, is also seen with him.

The truck driver questions their authority and asks to speak to their in-charge.

The allegations made in the video have not been independently verified, and the identities or official positions of the men seen in the footage have not been established.

At another point, the person recording the video appears to capture a different truck driver handing money to the men. The video's caption claims that truck drivers were being asked for amounts ranging from Rs 20 to Rs 200 as 'chai pani'.

The truck driver who filmed the incident appears to argue that such demands have become common and that drivers need to speak up about them.

He refuses to simply pay and leave, instead asking why the collection is taking place and who authorised it.

Claim about closed check post

According to the caption shared with the video, the alleged collection was taking place at a border check post that had previously been closed by the government.

The person who posted the video claimed that money was being collected from trucks entering Telangana in the name of Excise checks.

The post further alleged that an in-charge official later arrived after the truck driver strongly objected. It claimed that the official was also initially wearing slippers and was later seen changing his clothes.

These claims have not been independently confirmed.

No official statement from the Telangana authorities was included in the material accompanying the viral video.

Video sparks debate online

The footage has received thousands of reactions on social media.

Many users praised the truck driver for questioning the alleged collection instead of simply paying the money. Some called him an “advocate” for the way he questioned the men.

Others highlighted the camera used to record the interaction, with several joking that the footage showed the power of technology and social media.

Some users also tagged Telangana Police and urged authorities to look into the allegations.

One comment questioned how small payments of Rs 20 to Rs 200 could add up if large numbers of trucks were passing through the area.

Others asked for the exact location of the alleged incident and called for action if the claims were found to be true.

The claims will need to be verified by the relevant authorities.

Woman Sacked After Taking 'Medical Leave, Seeking Time Off For Sick Daughter' Protests Outside Tech Mahindra Office

Divya Danu — Fri, 24 Jul 2026 13:09:14 +0530

A software employee staged a protest outside Tech Mahindra's office in Medchal on Thursday, alleging that she was unfairly removed from her job after taking medical leave and later asking for time off to care for her sick daughter. The employee, identified as R Bhavana, also accused the company of putting her under pressure while she was away from work and alleged that she was not given a fair chance to explain her absence before her employment was ended, reported the Hindu.

Bhavana has filed a complaint with the Dundigal police, seeking action against the company. Police have received the complaint and started a preliminary inquiry into her allegations.

Employee alleges termination after medical leave

According to Bhavana, she joined the company around four months ago. She said that she fell ill during her training period and fainted while at work. She was later taken to hospital for treatment.

She claimed that she had to take 13 days of medical leave in June as she continued to recover from her health problems. However, Bhavana alleged that the company sent her a warning letter during this period and repeatedly contacted her through emails asking her to return to work.

She said her husband also informed the management about her health condition. However, she alleged that the company did not respond in a supportive manner.

Bhavana further claimed that she was under treatment for nearly two weeks and was allegedly warned that her job could be at risk if she did not return to work.

She sought leave after daughter fell ill

After returning to work, Bhavana said she later asked for three days of leave after her 11-year-old daughter fell ill. She alleged that instead of approving her request, the management questioned the length of her absence. She claimed that she later received repeated emails asking her to report to work by July 21.

Bhavana alleged that her employment was subsequently terminated without giving her any additional time or a proper opportunity to explain her situation.

She accused the company of deliberately removing her from service and said she decided to protest outside the office to demand justice and her reinstatement.

Woman raises questions over workplace conditions

In a video circulated on social media, Bhavana also raised concerns about the working conditions at the company. She alleged that employees were expected to inform their managers whenever they left their desks, including when they needed to use the washroom. She described the workplace as unhealthy and said she had never faced similar conditions at any other company where she had worked.

Bhavana also alleged that the management did not provide enough support when she fell ill at the office.

She appealed to software companies to take a more understanding approach towards women employees, pointing out that working women may also have responsibilities at home and can face medical or family emergencies.

Police begin preliminary inquiry

Following her protest, Bhavana approached the Dundigal police and lodged a complaint against the company.

Police officials confirmed that they had received the complaint and said a preliminary investigation was underway. Officials are also seeking the company's response to understand what led to the termination and whether there were any workplace harassment or procedural issues involved.

The allegations made by Bhavana have not been independently verified.

There was no immediate response from Tech Mahindra to the allegations at the time of publication. The company's version of the matter was not available.

AP Telangana Weather: 4 Pacific Storms Brewing, Sudden Showers May Follow Sunshine; Check Forecast

Zetan Kumari — Fri, 04 Sep 2026 09:12:24 +0530

AP and Telangana weather update: Rain activity is likely to continue across parts of the two states, with sunshine and sudden showers possible. Check the latest forecast, rain alerts and weather conditions.

The weather in the Telugu states is changing really fast. The IMD says that wind directions have shifted over the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea, creating some unusual weather. The rains we've seen recently might be easing up, but September 4 will bring a mixed bag. Expect the heat to rise, but don't be surprised by sudden, sharp showers.The intense low-pressure system over Madhya Pradesh is now moving west. This means its impact on Andhra Pradesh and Telangana is slowly reducing. On September 4, both states will likely see dry weather and high temperatures. You might see some heavy clouds passing by, but the chances of major rainfall are low. Still, some moisture from the southwest monsoon could bring a few scattered showers.A cyclonic circulation has joined the low-pressure system, pushing clouds up to 7.6 km high. One monsoon trough runs from Madhya Pradesh to the northeast Bay of Bengal, while another stretches from the Arabian Sea to Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh. Winds are hitting 60 km/h in the Arabian Sea and 40 km/h in the Bay of Bengal. Expect gusty winds of 35 km/h on the AP coast and 30 km/h in Telangana. Max temps will be around 36°C in AP and 33°C in Telangana. Humidity will be 60% in North Andhra, 42% in Coastal and Rayalaseema, and 55% in Telangana.The Hyderabad IMD says high humidity could trigger evening showers in several Telangana districts. Adilabad, Kumrambheem Asifabad, and Mancherial might see moderate rain by the afternoon. By evening, Narayanpet, Jogulamba Gadwal, Nagarkurnool, Nalgonda, Suryapet, Khammam, Bhadradri Kothagudem, Jayashankar Bhupalpally, and Peddapalli can expect rain. Hyderabad itself might get light to moderate showers in the evening or at night. Meanwhile, in AP, Coastal Andhra and Rayalaseema will see strong winds of 40-50 km/h with scattered light rains today and tomorrow.Globally, the El Niño effect has superheated the Pacific Ocean. Right now, 4 typhoons and 3 low-pressure systems are active there. Typhoon Lowell is the most dangerous, with winds hitting 220 km/h. Typhoon Marie has winds of 155 km/h, and Typhoon Karina is at 150 km/h. Near China, Typhoon Krowanh is spinning at 75 km/h. Experts warn that as El Niño gets stronger, we could see even more storms forming.Extreme heat and cloud cover are affecting the equatorial region and even Antarctica. Experts predict that this September, despite sudden rains, we'll face summer-like heat and humidity. This will be especially uncomfortable in AP's coastal areas. Since widespread rains aren't expected, there could be a shortage of irrigation water for crops. Analysts advise farmers not to rely only on rain and to get alternative irrigation methods ready.

A few women can be seen trying to speak to the attacker during the incident. However, nobody appears to physically confront him or take the weapon away.

The footage has led to questions online about why bystanders did not intervene as the attack unfolded.

A wedding ceremony in Telangana's Rajanna Sircilla district turned tense after a man was allegedly attacked by his wife and several of her relatives during the function.

According to the man's complaint, the incident was linked to a dispute between him and his wife that has continued for around three years.

Couple had been involved in marital dispute

The man, identified as Kasthuri Shravan Kumar from BY Nagar in Sircilla, married Odnala Soumya, who is from Godavarikhani, around three years ago.

According to police, differences reportedly developed between the couple within months of their marriage. Soumya subsequently filed a case at Godavarikhani One Town police station against Shravan Kumar and members of his family, alleging domestic violence and dowry harassment.

That case is currently before the court.

The latest confrontation reportedly happened during the wedding of Shravan Kumar's sister, Kasthuri Swathi, and Srikant from Patancheru. The ceremony was being held at the Shiva Temple in Shivanagar on Sunday.

Family confrontation escalates at wedding

In his complaint to police, Shravan Kumar alleged that Soumya arrived at the wedding with her parents, brother and other relatives.

He claimed that they confronted him and his relatives, asking why he had not taken Soumya back to their marital home.

The argument allegedly escalated, with Shravan Kumar accusing the group of abusing him and physically assaulting him. He also alleged that he was threatened with death if he did not take Soumya back.

Family members further alleged that an attempt was made to take Shravan Kumar away in a car.

The allegations have not been independently established, and the exact circumstances surrounding the confrontation remain under investigation.

CCTV footage becomes key evidence

CCTV cameras at the venue reportedly recorded the incident, providing police with footage of the alleged confrontation and assault.

Following Shravan Kumar's complaint, Sircilla police registered a case against several people and began investigating the incident.

Police are examining the CCTV footage and statements from those present at the wedding to establish what led to the confrontation and whether the allegations made by the complainant are supported by the evidence.

The earlier domestic violence and dowry harassment case filed by Soumya is also part of the wider background to the dispute.

Further details, including the sections invoked in the latest case and any arrests, are awaited.

Telangana Student With 98.6% Score Dies By Suicide After Alleged Taunts Over 1 Mark, Teacher Booked

Divya Danu — Thu, 30 Jul 2026 16:34:52 +0530

An 18-year-old Intermediate student in Telangana's Jogulamba Gadwal district allegedly died by suicide on Tuesday, with his family accusing a teacher of humiliating and slapping him over his examination performance. The student, identified as Tarun from Kothapalli village in Gadwal mandal, was studying in the second year at Government Junior College, Gadwal. He had scored 434 out of 440 marks in his first-year Intermediate examinations, according to his elder brother's complaint. Police have booked the teacher for alleged abetment to suicide following the family's complaint. An investigation is now underway.

Family alleges repeated humiliation

According to the complaint, as reported by the Times of India, Tarun was a bright student and had secured 434 marks, just one mark behind another student who scored 435.

The family alleged that a lecturer repeatedly praised the other student while criticising Tarun over the difference in their marks. They further alleged that the teacher humiliated him in front of other students and staff.

The complaint states that the incident became particularly serious on July 27. Tarun allegedly questioned the teacher after being criticised, following which the teacher allegedly slapped him.

His brother, T Mohan, alleged that the incident left Tarun deeply distressed. The family said he had stopped attending college for the two days before his death.

The allegations have not been independently established, and police are investigating the circumstances.

Family discovered Tarun at home

On Tuesday, Tarun did not go to college. His parents went to a temple in the afternoon, while his elder brother went to his in-laws' house, according to the complaint.

When his parents returned home at around 4pm, they found that the main door was locked from inside. Tarun did not respond when they called out to him.

The family then sought help from a 15-year-old relative from the neighbourhood, who entered the house through an opening in the roof and opened the door from inside.

The family found Tarun dead inside the house. Police were informed and reached the spot. His body was sent for a post-mortem examination and was later handed over to his family.

Suicide note mentions alleged incident

Police said Tarun left behind a two-page note, which has since circulated on social media. According to the family, the note referred to the alleged incident at the college and described the distress he had experienced.

The alleged contents of the note have led to an outpouring of grief and anger online, with many people questioning the treatment of students and the pressure they can face over academic performance.

However, the contents of a suicide note and allegations made by a family require investigation before responsibility can be established.

Teacher booked under BNS

Based on the complaint filed by Tarun's brother, Gadwal Rural Police registered a case against the teacher under Section 108 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, which deals with abetment of suicide.

Gadwal Circle Inspector T Sreenu said police were examining the allegations and that further legal action would follow the preliminary investigation.

The investigation will establish what happened at the college, whether the alleged assault and humiliation took place and what circumstances preceded Tarun's death.

The case has also renewed attention on the pressure faced by students over academic results, particularly when small differences in marks become a source of comparison.

Tarun's family is now seeking action against the teacher, while police continue their investigation into the circumstances surrounding the teenager's death.

CCTV captures attack at busy junction

The incident unfolded in the middle of the road near the busy RR junction, according to reports.

Haribabu, 26, had reportedly gone to the area as usual when the unidentified attacker suddenly approached him. The CCTV footage shows the assailant attacking him with a weapon before leaving the spot.

The footage has since been widely circulated on social media.

Police are examining the CCTV recordings and other available evidence to trace the person responsible for the attack. The identity of the attacker has not yet been established.

Haribabu was out on bail in wife’s murder case

Haribabu had been facing a murder case over the death of his wife, Vaishnavi, earlier this year.

Vaishnavi, who was 19, was four months pregnant when she was killed in March, according to reports. Her father subsequently approached the police, following which a case was registered against Haribabu.

The allegations against Haribabu were linked to a dispute over dowry. Police had accused him of killing Vaishnavi after her family allegedly failed to meet his dowry demands.

The attacker then fled in a waiting car after Haribabu collapsed at the spot.

Police begin probe into Nizamabad killing

Police have started investigating the circumstances surrounding Haribabu’s death.

His body was sent to the Government General Hospital for a post-mortem examination. Investigators are expected to examine CCTV footage from the junction and nearby areas to establish the attacker’s route before and after the killing.

The police are also likely to investigate whether Haribabu’s earlier murder case had any connection with Thursday’s attack. At present, the attacker and the motive have not been officially identified.

The CCTV footage of the attack is likely to form a key part of the investigation as police work to identify the assailant and determine why Haribabu was targeted.

Hyderabad Man's Unusual Pothole Protest Goes Viral as Civic Body Promises Permanent Fix (WATCH)

A man staged an unusual protest by sitting inside a large pothole on a busy road in Hyderabad, drawing attention to the poor condition of the stretch and the dangers faced by commuters. The incident took place on the Imlibun-Putlibowli road, a key route connecting the Mahatma Gandhi Bus Station (MGBS) towards Koti and Chaderghat.

The video of his protest has since gone viral on social media, showing the man sitting inside the pothole as vehicles move around him. The unusual form of protest quickly caught the attention of commuters and police personnel.

The stretch is known for heavy traffic and has faced repeated complaints over potholes, uneven surfaces and poor road conditions.

Police remove protester as traffic slows

The protest briefly affected traffic movement on the busy route, causing inconvenience to motorists and commuters.

Police personnel later reached the spot and removed the man from the pothole to restore traffic flow.

However, the video sparked a wider debate online, with many social media users questioning why citizens had to resort to unusual protests to draw attention to damaged roads.

Several users praised the protester, calling him a "hero" and saying his action had highlighted a genuine public safety concern.

Others criticised civic authorities and demanded immediate repairs across Hyderabad, claiming that potholes and damaged roads had become a major problem in several parts of the city.

One user wrote that people living near the stretch should join similar protests if road conditions remained unchanged.

Civic official says permanent solution is planned

Amid the online criticism, an official associated with the local civic administration responded to the viral video and said repair work had already been carried out.

According to the official, the uneven portions of the road had been levelled and potholes had been filled using wet mix material.

However, the official said frequent water stagnation was causing potholes to reappear.

A more permanent solution is now being planned, with a concrete cement road proposed for the location. The work is expected to begin after the required permission is received from traffic police.

The response has brought some hope to residents and commuters, although many continue to demand quicker action.

Viral protest highlights Hyderabad's pothole problem

The incident has once again put the spotlight on Hyderabad's road infrastructure, particularly the problems caused by waterlogging and repeated damage to road surfaces. Potholes can pose serious risks to motorists, especially two-wheeler riders, and become more dangerous during rain and poor visibility.

While the man's protest lasted only briefly, the viral video succeeded in doing what ordinary complaints often fail to achieve i.e. bringing widespread public attention to a damaged stretch of road.

The snake, estimated to be around 12 feet long, moved calmly across the path while visitors watched from a safe distance. Because of its size, it took several moments to completely cross the trail before disappearing back into the forest area inside the national park.

Several walkers recorded the rare sighting on their mobile phones. The clips were soon shared widely on social media, attracting thousands of views and sparking discussions about wildlife in the middle of a busy city.

The unexpected appearance of the python briefly made visitors more cautious during their morning walk. However, there were no reports of any injury or dangerous encounter.

According to local reports, the reptile continued moving naturally into the wooded part of the park without disturbing anyone.

KBR National Park is one of Hyderabad's most important urban forests and is home to several species of birds, reptiles and small animals. Sightings of snakes are not unusual, although seeing one of this size on a walking trail is considered rare.

Many users admired the snake and called the sighting a reminder of the rich biodiversity protected inside KBR National Park. Several wildlife enthusiasts pointed out that the Indian rock python is a protected species and said the park remains its natural home.

Others believed the snake had recently swallowed prey because of the noticeable bulge in the middle of its body and its slow movement. Some users guessed it may have eaten a bird or another small animal found inside the park.

The sighting also renewed calls from some conservation supporters to protect KBR National Park from growing urban development around its boundaries.

Wildlife experts say people should remain calm if they spot wild animals inside protected forest areas. Visitors are advised not to approach, provoke or attempt to handle such animals. Instead, they should keep a safe distance and immediately inform forest department officials.

The incident served as another reminder that KBR National Park continues to support thriving wildlife despite being surrounded by one of Hyderabad's busiest urban areas.

To Gift His Girlfriend An iPhone, Man Turns Ganja Smuggler; Couple Arrested With 12kg Drugs

Divya Danu — Fri, 04 Sep 2026 13:33:52 +0530

A 21-year-old man and his 20-year-old girlfriend were arrested in Telangana’s Khammam district for allegedly transporting 12 kg of ganja, with police claiming the man wanted to sell the drugs to raise money for an iPhone birthday gift for his girlfriend. The accused have been identified as Mithra Chaitanya, 21, and Hemalatha, 20, both reportedly residents of Peddapalli district. According to police, the couple travelled to Odisha, where they allegedly purchased around 12 kg of ganja for approximately Rs 16,000. They then reportedly set off for Hyderabad on a motorcycle, allegedly planning to sell the contraband for around Rs 6 lakh.

Couple caught during vehicle checking in Wyra

The alleged drug run came to an end in the Wyra area of Khammam district, where the Eagle Force and Wyra police were conducting vehicle checks.

Police said officers attempted to stop the motorcycle carrying Chaitanya and Hemalatha. According to investigators, Chaitanya allegedly accelerated after noticing the police and tried to escape.

Police teams chased the motorcycle and attempted to stop it. During the pursuit, the bike reportedly lost balance and crashed.

Wyra Sub-Inspector Puppala Rama Rao, Chaitanya and Hemalatha suffered minor injuries in the incident, according to police.

The couple were subsequently taken into custody.

12 kg ganja, motorcycle and phones seized

A search allegedly led to the recovery of 12 kg of dry ganja from the accused. Police also seized the motorcycle allegedly used to transport the drugs and four mobile phones.

The seized material is now being examined as part of the investigation into the alleged supply route between Odisha and Hyderabad.

Police link alleged drug deal to iPhone birthday gift

During questioning, Chaitanya allegedly told police that he wanted to buy Hemalatha an iPhone for her birthday. Police claim that he decided to raise the money through ganja trafficking.

The alleged plan was to buy the drug cheaply in Odisha and transport it to Hyderabad, where it could reportedly be sold for a much higher price.

However, investigators have also found that Chaitanya was allegedly not new to drug-related offences.

Accused already facing three NDPS cases

Police said Chaitanya already has three cases registered under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act. The cases were reportedly registered in Peddapalli, Uppal and Medchal.

According to police, Chaitanya was released on bail on April 30 this year. Investigators now allege that he subsequently became involved in another case involving the transportation of ganja, Aaj Tak reported.

The latest arrest could therefore have wider implications for the investigation into his alleged links with drug suppliers and buyers.

Three others wanted in alleged ganja network

Police have also identified three other people who are allegedly connected to the supply chain. According to investigators, Bhagwan Hantal allegedly arranged the ganja in Odisha. In Hyderabad, Shashi and Nagoor were allegedly supposed to receive and purchase the consignment.

Police have declared the three men wanted and are searching for them.

Investigation into Odisha-Hyderabad drug route continues

Investigators are now trying to establish how the alleged network operated and whether more people were involved in transporting and distributing the drugs.

Police are questioning Chaitanya and Hemalatha to identify other possible links in the alleged supply chain.

The investigation is also expected to focus on the movement of the 12-kg consignment from Odisha towards Hyderabad and the people allegedly involved in arranging its sale.

The arrests came after what police described as a routine vehicle-checking operation in Wyra, which ultimately led officers to the alleged drug consignment and exposed a wider network under investigation.
