Sridhar, a native of Avunuru in Mustabad mandal of Karimnagar district, had been posted as SI just three days ago after completing training.

Sridhar’s brother Srikanth, who came to Kerameri, said they had no family disputes or financial problems and alleged that his brother had committed suicide due to harassment by higher officials. Sridhar had worked as a probationary SI at the same police station.
