Hyderabad: The city police apprehended 14 individuals, including four minors, for their alleged role in the revenge killing case that took place recently in Pragathinagar.
The accused were identified as Shivappa, Siddhu, Mahesh, Koushik, Sameer, Jayanth, Thirumal, Gannappa, Prateek, and Rahul, all in their early 20s, and the four children in conflict with the law (CCL), the police said, according to a report by the TOI.
