A court on Friday awarded life imprisonment to bricklayer Dev Kumar (30) after convicting him of murdering locomotive pilot D. Ebinizer (52) near the station yard on October 10, 2024.
Dev Kumar intercepted the locomotive pilot when he was coming to Vijayawada station to report for duty around 2 am near the F cabin and demanded money.
When the victim refused to give, Dev Kumar attacked him with stones on his head and chest, took ₹750 from his pocket and fled, said Government Railway Police (GRP) Circle Inspector JV Ramana, who investigated the case.
The GRP and RPF arrested Dev Kumar, a native of Singahi village in Bihar’s Muzaffarpur district.
