A young man caught in a theft case made a plan to escape from the police. Saying that he will take care of the other accused, he made the police jeep pass along the path along a stream. On reaching his intended place, he put the police in words, made the vehicle slow down, broke the shackles and jumped down. In the blink of an eye, he jumped into the nearby stream. No matter how hard the police searched, he could not be found. 36 hours have passed. Did the accused swim across the stream and run away? Or drowned in the river and lost? is not elusive. This incident came to light in Sri Potti Sriramulu Zilla Sangam. A gang which has been targeting lonely women and robbing gold ornaments in Nellore rural mandal has become a headache for the police. The CCS police who are investigating this case arrested Giri and another person from Uptutur last Sunday. They were taken to AS Peta on Wednesday night as part of the investigation process. While coming back to Nellore, the accused made a plan to escape from Giri. He convinced the police that another person who was involved in thefts with him was in the hilly area of Sangam. Police diverted their vehicle that way to catch him too. When the police jeep reached the junction of Biraperu stream with Penna river on the way to Atmakuru, Giri made the vehicle slow down by talking to the police. With the help of a fellow accused in the jeep, he removed the handcuffs and jumped down from the vehicle. When the police came, he jumped into the nearby stream. The police also went down into the stream and chased the accused. As a result, the accused went deeper into the Giri river. After that there was no trace of him. Gaja tried with swimmers to no avail.
