Hyderabad: 11 men held for murder of realtor

Hyderabad: The Medipally police have unravelled the mystery behind the murder of Kesani Raji Reddy, the civil contractor-cum-realtor, who was hacked to death with sickles by assailants early last week.

The arrested were identified as Yellagoni Uday Bhasker Goud, Kavati Raghu alias Pradeep, Kancharla Benny alias Browny, Eligeti Suresh, Paddad Durga Rao alias Karebiya, Gutta Naveen alias Swamy, Nelapatla Venkatesh, Vanteru Nikhil Reddy alias Bubby, Tatvam Srikanth alias Dablu, Siligi Reddy Janardhan Reddy and Pothagari Krishna Karthik, officials said, adding that John Babu, Nageshwar Rao, Bakka Naga and Sailesh are reportedly absconding.

Yellagoni Uday Bhaskar Goud, has a criminal background and runs Login Media Private Ltd. in Madhapur, police said, adding that he used to produce and upload short films relating to entertainment, sports, devotion and educational programmes, through channels promoted by him on YouTube.

Bhaskar got acquainted with Reddy while playing cards at Bengaluru and has invested about Rs 1.5 crore in Reddy’s firm by purchasing exclusive content from him and his relatives. He also availed loans to the tune of Rs 20 lakh from him and subscribed to private chits through Reddy.

“As per his plan, he approached Kavati Raghu, a rowdy sheeter from Vijayawada through one Benny. Raghu then planned to carry out the murder with his associates for Rs 13.5 lakh and took an advance of Rs 3.5 lakh. On November 21, Bhaskar called Reddy saying he would repay money and hacked him,” officials said.
