Rajampet DSP B. Lakshminarayana and Sub-Inspector Rajagopal visited the place of murder. The student went out on his two-wheeler after having dinner at home but was found dead within an hour, according to the police. The deceased student allegedly had a tiff with some students about 10 days ago and it could have led to the murder, police suspected. His father Sivaiah, of Varadaiahpalem in Rajampet mandal, who runs a kirana shop near Rajampet old bus stand, went on a pilgrimage to Shirdi a couple of days ago. The boy’s mother collapsed on seeing his body and was rushed to hospital. Rajampet police registered a case.
