CPI (M) district secretary Nunna Nageswara Rao demanded that the policemen allegedly responsible for the “lock-up” death of Dalit woman, Mariyamma, of Chintakani mandal at Addagudur police station in Yadadri-Bhongir district be booked under murder charges and arrested. In a statement, Mr Rao alleged that Mariyamma was beaten to death and her son Uday and his friend were subjected to third-degree torture by some policemen at Addagudur in connection with a case last week. "Mere suspension of the three policemen in connection with the “lock-up” death of the Dalit woman is not enough," he said, adding “the primitive method of custodial torture is highly deplorable and deserves stringent action.”More Related News
