Hyderabad GRP Cracks Malakpet Station Murder, Arrests Culprit for Stealing Victim’s Phone
Hyderabad: Swift action by the Hyderabad Government Railway Police (GRP) has led to the swift resolution of a murder case at Malakpet railway station. Within a few days of the incident, they apprehended the perpetrator, Mohd. Sohail, a 24-year-old daily wage worker from Chaderghat.
Sohail confessed to brutally stabbing the 40-year-old victim, driven by the desire to steal his mobile phone. He callously sold the phone for a mere Rs. 1,700 at MGBS and squandered the money on personal expenses. His past involvement in property crimes across Hyderabad police stations and a maintained history sheet at Chaderghat paint a picture of a repeat offender.
Initially registered as a suspicious death case in Kacheguda, the investigation took a sharp turn after the autopsy confirmed foul play. Leveraging surveillance footage, the GRP swiftly identified and apprehended Sohail at Yakutpura railway station.
While Sohail faces the consequences of his heinous act, the victim’s identity remains unknown. Efforts are ongoing to trace his family and loved ones.
