HYDERABAD: Two senior policemen working in Bhongir district - DCP E Ramchandra Reddy and Inspector Ch Venkanna - were transferred from their office on Saturday, allegedly for their failure to curb illegal activities of slain gangster Nayeem and his associates.
It is reported that several complaints on the alleged behaviour of police personnel, favouring the gangster and his associates in cases of ‘land settlements’, had reached the Rachakonda commissionerate and even the office of Telangana DGP.
