KAKINADA: The Tuni Rural Police have rejected reports that a Kia car was roaming around the village on the day when the two-and-a-year-old girl went missing from a palm-oil garden in Ch Agraharam village on June 6.
Posts on social media had stated that a KIA car was suspiciously roaming around the village for two days and even hit an old man. This car struck a relative of the child, namely Koteswara Rao near Narsipatnam, the posts had claimed.
Circle inspector Chenna Kesava Rao told Deccan Chronicle on Monday that this was fake news. Police teams thoroughly checked 18 vehicles that were seen in the area on that day and took the statements of these motorists. The car number given by a relative of the child, Koteswara Rao, has been verified and it was found that the number “is of a lorry in Vijayawada.”
The CI said that the lorry owners stated that the lorry had not gone towards Tuni that day. Koteswara Rao was brought to the police station and an inquiry was on, he added.
