Police have intensified investigations into the death of former Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) Assistant Vigilance and Security Officer (AVSO) Y. Satish Kumar, who was found dead on the railway tracks between Komali and Juturu railway stations near Tadipatri on Friday.
CID chief Ravishankar Ayyanar rushed to Anantapur and reviewed the progress of the case investigation with the railway and local police, forensic experts and doctors who conducted the post-mortem on Satish Kumar’s body.
Mr. Ravishankar visited the place where the body of Satish Kumar was found and inquired from the Railway Police about the distance from Guntakal Railway Station to Komali village where the body was found, the time the deceased boarded, the time and other details.
The CID chief also inquired about the nature of the injuries on Satish Kumar’s body and later interviewed the doctors who conducted the post-mortem on the body for nearly two hours. Meanwhile, as part of the crime scene reconstruction, the police used a dummy and threw it out of the door of the Chennai Egmore train at the same spot. The same was recorded through drones, sources said.
During his tenure as AVSO, Satish Kumar caught CV Ravikumar, a volunteer, stealing money while counting the hundi collections, but reached a settlement with the accused in the Lok Adalat, which led to the disposal of the case.
