Hyderabad, January 07: Bhanu Kiran, prime suspect in the killing of Maddelacheruvu Suryanarayana Reddy alias Suri, who continued to evade the police might have fled out of Andhra Pradesh, a top police official said today.
“We are pursuing the Suri (murder) case. He (Bhanu) might have gone out of Andhra Pradesh,” State Director General of Police K Aravinda Rao told reporters here.
Suri, a faction leader from Anantapur district in Rayalaseema region of Andhra Pradesh, who was the prime accused in the murder of TDP MLA Paritala Ravi, was shot dead by gunmen in his car in Yousufguda here on January 3 and police strongly suspect Bhanu’s involvement in his murder.
Special police teams have already been despatched to Bangalore and other places to nab Bhanu, who was also a close aide of Suri.
