70-year-old’s killers found
 
Hyderabad: The police has solved the murder of 70-year-old G. Eshwar, who was killed on Sunday at Banjara Hills.
A gang of seven was held on Thursday in connection with the case. Eshwar was stabbed to death. The cops suspected that a land row was behind the murder. The arrested men are Ashar 31, Shaik Afsar, 27, Hajiuddin, 28, Sajid, 33, Mohammed Khaja, 26, Mohd. Abbas 32, and Jaleel, 25. a resident of Borabanda.
DCP V. Satyanarayana said that Ashar Raoof who belongs to an affluent family had a dispute with Eshwar over an open plot measuring 1100 square yards on Road No: 13 at Banjara Hills. The plot was in the possession of Eshwar and is adjacent to his house.
The two had a legal battle in the City Civil Court in connection with the plot. Two years ago when the judgement came in favour of Eshwar, Ashar decided to eliminate him and grab the land.
"He conspired with his supervisor Afsar two months ago to kill Eshwar. Afsar arranged the gang of four comprising Haji, Sajid, Abbas and Khaja and they planned the murder meticulously.
The deal was settled for Rs 4.5 lakh and Asfar Raoof gave an advance of Rs 1 lakh about a month back. Since then the gang was watching the movements of Eshwar," the DCP said.
On July 14 Sunday morning some members of the gang waited near Eshwar's house and when he came out, they informed others who were waiting at the graveyard on road No: 13 over the phone.
When Eshwar approached the graveyard he was stopped by the gang on the pretext of asking for an address. When he stopped his vehicle to direct them, the gang stabbed him on his neck and stomach.
A case was registered under sections 302, 109, 120(b) of the IPC and 25 of the Arms act and was investigated by the Banjara Hills police. The gang was held near PVNR express road, while planning to escape from Hyderabad. The cops seized two Pulsar bikes, two knives and Rs 21,000 from them.

The cops later said that they had contacted the TV channel and the channel had apologised. The news scroll was flashed only for a few minutes.

I want to begin with a little story that was told to me by a leading executive at Aptech. He was exercising in a gym with a lot of younger people.

Shekhar Kapur’s Bandit Queen didn’t make the cut. Neither did Shaji Karun’s Piravi, which bagged 31 international awards.
