Nellore:A moneylender and his son allegedly took a woman and her children, including a six-month-old baby, to their house and confined them over non-payment of interest on a loan in Srikalahasti.
According to preliminary information, Aadi of Sivanathapalem had borrowed Rs 1.50 lakh from Prasad, a moneylender from Srikalahasti, at a high rate of interest about two years ago. Aadi reportedly faced financial difficulties over the past six months and failed to pay the interest despite repeated demands from Prasad.
Prasad and his son Mohan allegedly took Aadi’s wife and children to their house and confined them over the unpaid interest. Acting on information from Aadi’s family members, police intervened and rescued the woman and children.
Police are investigating the incident, including the circumstances surrounding the alleged confinement. As Aadi and Prasad are reportedly close relatives, officials are also examining the background to the dispute.
