IndiaThe Special Investigation Team (SIT) has taken suspended Circle Inspector S.S.V.V. Nagaraju into custody in the alleged custodial death of 25-year-old Gade Sai Krishna. Nagaraju, the main accused, is suspected of wrongful confinement, torture, and destroying evidence related to the incident. The Supreme Court authorized the SIT to detain Nagaraju for seven days to investigate the case. Nagaraju was transferred from judicial remand in Rajamahendravaram Central Prison and is now being interrogated in Vijayawada under the leadership of Inspector General of Police M. Ravi Prakash. The case began when Sai Krishna disappeared after being detained by Krishnalanka police in May, and his mother filed a habeas corpus petition after being denied access to him. Nagaraju was arrested on June 23 on charges of custodial torture and body disposal. The SIT has uncovered claims that police attempted to cover up the death by suggesting Sai Krishna had escaped to Goa and tampered with CCTV footage. They have also questioned crematorium staff and arrested a medical professional involved in treating Sai Krishna during his alleged detention.
