Tenali Psycho Case: Villagers Killed Wrong Person

Mistaking him for 'Tenali Psycho', the villagers killed a wrong person on Saturday. On the suspicion that the one who has been attacking lone women in the region, Pedavadlapudi villagers caught hold of a mentally deranged person and lynched him.

The Mangalagiri cops, who took over the investigation, found that the lynched man was not the 'Tenali Psycho' as suspected. The victim women said the murdered man was not their attacker after cops showed them his photograph. The Tenali police investigating the case have also rejected the claims of Pedavadlapudi villagers. The cops, meanwhile, are trying to identify the murdered man. "Our teams are trying to get information as to from where he landed in the village," Annapurna said. The deceased was reportedly speaking in broken Hindi and is believed to be from Odisha.
