5 of family brutally murdered by rivals over property disputes

In a ghastly incident, five members of a family were brutally murdered by rivals in Pedda Chintakunta village of Allagadda Mandalam in Kurnool district last night.

Police said YSR Congress Party Mandal convener Mr Injeti Krishna reddy, 50, his wife Govindamma, 48, follower Dubbega, 45 and other family members were attacked by rivals with sickles and swords.

While the three were killed on the spot, two other members of the family, who were seriously injured in the attack, died in the hospital.

Krishna Reddy’s father-in-law Subba Reddy and son Mallikarjuna Reddy were immediately hospitalized but doctors couldn’t save their lives. Both of them died this afternoon in Kurnool hospitals.

Police said around 10 persons were involved in the dastardly attack on the family. The rivals dashed their speeding vehicle against the main gate of the house in a filmy style and attacked the family with sharp edged weapons after forcing their entry into the house at 11 pm.

Police said they are suspecting old rivalry and property disputes as reasons for the attack and have registered a case against the attackers. (JUBS)
