No attacker will be spared: Vikarabad IGP

Hyderabad: Hours after the incident wherein rioters attacked the collector in Vikarabad, IGP multi zone-II V. Satyanarayana reviewed the situation. He directed officials to register cases based on video footage. Bomraspet police have registered three different cases, including rioting.

The IGP said that they would take stern action against the miscreants, who compelled the collector to visit the place.

"We have informed the collector that the rioters posed as farmers and some women planned to attack the revenue staff with chili powder. He wanted to meet the farmers but the rioters started attacking the collector minutes after he reached Lagacherla," the IGP said.

"We will form special teams and collect evidence through technical, special branch and other officials and take action against them, no matter who instigated this attack. We identified one Suresh from Hyderabad posing as a farmer and indulging in rioting. We will also identify all others through their mobile phone call data. Legal action should be taken against them as well," Satyanarayana said.
