Article Today, Hyderabad:
An IAS officer from Andhra Pradesh has come under the scanner after the death of a woman in Hyderabad. Reports indicate that the officer had been in an extramarital relationship with the woman for several months. He had earlier served as the head of a key department in the State government. Sources suggest that he had distanced himself from his family during this period.
Dispute Leads to Fatal Incident
The officer, who was recently undergoing medical treatment, is said to have grown suspicious about the woman’s associations with other individuals. This reportedly led to repeated arguments between the two. During one such confrontation, he allegedly assaulted her. The woman is believed to have sustained a severe head injury after hitting a wall, which resulted in her death from excessive bleeding.
Cover-Up Allegations
Following the incident, the officer is suspected to have used his influence to alter hospital records. According to allegations, the woman’s death was recorded as an accidental fall from stairs. Observers claim that this step was taken to avoid scrutiny and potential legal consequences.
Return to Official Duties
Despite the incident, the officer is said to have resumed his duties in Vijayawada shortly afterwards. Colleagues reportedly noticed no outward sign of disturbance in his routine. The matter has since drawn significant attention among administrative circles.
Further Clarity Awaited
Authorities have yet to issue an official statement. More details are expected to emerge as inquiries progress. The incident has raised questions about the officer’s conduct and the handling of the case records.
