Child murdered by mother, paramour in Siddipet
A woman and her paramour have been booked for murdering her two year old son, allegedly seeing him as a hurdle to their illicit relationship. Police said the woman misled her husband by claiming the child had died of a fits attack. The crime, committed 20 days ago at the woman’s house in Siddipet district, came to light on Saturday after her father lodged a complaint.
Complainant M. Swamy, a cab driver from Teegul in Jagdevpur mandal, had been living in Keesara for work, leaving his wife Jyoti and son Harikrishna at his native place. During this period, Jyoti allegedly developed a relationship with Naveen, who used to frequently visit her.
Police said Naveen persuaded Jyoti to eliminate the child. The duo allegedly beat Harikrishna to death and staged it as a fits attack. Jyoti informed Swamy that the boy had died suddenly, leading him to perform the last rites the same night. Swamy grew suspicious after noticing blood stains at his house. On interrogation, Jyoti confessed to the crime. She has been arrested, while Naveen remains absconding.

DCP saves infant after road mishap
Rajendranagar DCP S. Srinivas, along with his night duty escort team, saved the life of a one year old infant who had lost consciousness following a major road accident on June 18.
Police said Srinivas noticed that a car (MH14JR 9028), en route from Bengaluru to Hyderabad, had crashed into a roadside tree. The DCP rushed to the wreckage to help the occupants. The airbags had deployed and a couple in the vehicle was safe, but their baby had stopped breathing and was unconscious.
“We immediately administered cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) to the infant,” Srinivas said. “Due to combined, swift and persistent efforts, the baby regained consciousness and began breathing normally.” The family was then shifted to a hospital for medical care.
The couple expressed deep gratitude to Srinivas and his team, saying the police “arrived like Gods” to save their child.
Srinivas, along with senior officials, commended the night duty team from the CAR Headquarters — constables Ch. Mahesh, Pradeep, M. Venkatesh and Pavan — for their presence of mind, professional conduct and dedication in saving a precious life.

Unidentified thieves escaped with a bag containing over 2.5 kg of gold from a trader travelling by private bus from Anantapur to Hyderabad in the early hours of Saturday. Police said the theft occurred near Dhone in Nandyal district, Andhra Pradesh.
