Tigress killing: investigation in full swing

By Our Staff Reporter

HYDERABAD, MARCH 5.The City Police Commissioner, Mr. P. Ramulu, on Monday said investigation into the killing of the tigress in the Nehru Zoological Park was on full steam, "but we are unable to make it public as it is likely to hamper investigation."

"We have got some clues and two teams have been formed to pursue the case," he explained. The teams were headed by the Inspectors of Bahadurpura and Kamatipura police stations under the direct supervision of the Assistant Commissioner of Police, Charminar. The Police Commissioner was reviewing the case here on Monday.

Stating that continuous efforts were on to nab the criminals involved in the incident, he said, "we have been unable to get any clues since the crime scene was disturbed in the initial stages itself. Hence, we are working from the list of criminals involved in poaching and related cases. We have arrived at some clues, he added.
