Hyderabad, May 22: Reports of the prime accused in the Ayesha Meera rape and murder case, Satyam Babu having escaped from custody while being shifted from Hyderabad to Vijayawada early on Saturday morning were met with disbelief by almost everyone who heard the news.
According to reports coming in, Satyam Babu escaped from the entourage of policemen who were escorting him to Vijayawada to produce him before the court hearing the sensational rape and murder case of a pharmacy student Ayesha Meera in 2008.
The entourage had stopped for dinner at Suryapet in Nalgonda district where Satyam Babu pleaded that he needed to use the restroom.
According to the police version, his handcuffs were removed and he managed to ‘vanish’ in the darkness.
His ‘escape’ has been met with disbelief by Ayesha’s mother who said that this was not possible since Satyam Babu was not even able to walk properly, let alone run away.
Doctors at the Nizam’s Institute of Medical Sciences too said that Satyam Babu’s nerves were damaged, rendering it impossible for him to even walk properly.
According to the latest reports coming in, several police personnel in the escort party were suspended over the ‘escape’.
