Hyderabad: Hyderabad police commissioner Anjani Kumar on Saturday afternoon took to twitter for informing the world that the incident involving Priyanka Reddy took place in Cyberabad, which is in Ranga Reddy district, and not in Hyderabad. His tweet received a major backlash, which made him delete his tweet in an hour’s time.
Anjani Kumar was upset that everyone in the main stream media was stating that the incident occurred in Hyderabad. He just wanted to clarify that the incident had not taken place in his jurisdiction but in the Cyberabad commissionerate.
His tweet said: “The rape and murder case reported is from Ranga Reddy district of Cyberabad Police Commissionerate. It is not Hyderabad, as has been wrongly reported by one channel.”
The people tweeted back asking the Hyderabad commissioner, “What is the point in this technicality?” “Does this really make a difference?” “What is the reason for putting this information now?”
The Hyderabad Utopian Global Citizens handle said, “For the world, it is Hyderabad. There may be three commissionerates but does that matter. It is a shocking and tragic incident.” Another tweet said, “When Rajiv Gandhi International Airport is tweeted as Hyderabad, there is no objection. Why now? For everyone, the whole area is Hyderabad.
