The Kukunurpally Sub-inspector Prabhakar Reddy allegedly committed suicide by shooting himself with his service revolver in his official quarters in Kukunurpally in Siddipet district on Wednesday.
The 2012 batch Sub-inspector was reportedly depressed since he was denied leave to be with his wife at the time of her delivery two months ago. Reddy, a native of Tabgutur village of Aler mandal in
Yadadri-Bhongir district, is survived by his wife and a two-month-old son.
Incidentally, Prabhakar Reddy’s death comes exactly 10 months after his predecessor, Ramakrishna Reddy died under similar circumstances in August last.
The body was shifted to Siddipet for postmortem. A case has been registered and investigation is on, police said.
