Chittoor: In a sensational event, Madanapalle police have nabbed Madhukar Reddy, a resident of Chittoor district and a notorious criminal who attacked an employee of Corporation Bank in an ATM counter in Bengaluru nearly four years ago, according to Chittoor Superintendent of Police G Srinivas.
Speaking to presspersons here on Saturday, the SP said that the offender attacked one Jyothi Uday (45) an employee of Corporation Bank when she entered the ATM in November 2013 and assaulted her severely.
She tried to withdraw cash from the ATM to purchase a gift for her child’s birthday. She sustained serious injuries and was then admitted in hospital.
The then police commissioner of Bengaluru, Raghavendra Auradkar, formed several investigative teams and deployed them to the neighbouring states like Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and Kerala to nab the offender.
A reward of Rs.5 lakh had been declared on the offender. The police had distributed over 40,000 leaflets in the villages of Karnataka and to truck drivers for identifying the offender.
The Bengaluru police had also made futile efforts to nab the offender in Chitragada, Kolar, Chikballapaur, Pavagada and other cities.
Extensive news coverage was also given in Tamil, Hindi, Telugu and Kannada channels about the fugitive. Subsequently, the Bengaluru Police Commissioner hiked the reward on him to Rs.10 lakhs during last year.
Despite making all efforts, the Bengaluru police failed to nab the most wanted criminal. Madanapalle police however nabbed Madhukar Reddy, the elusive offender on Saturday .
The accused was involved in various offences and murder cases earlier, the SP added. He complimented the police of Madanapalle DSP Rajendra Prasad, and Two Town CI Hanumantha Naik and their force in this connection for their excellent investigation in nabbing the accused.
