Karimnagar: Irate relatives of a youth who committed suicide due to alleged police harassment attacked a police station in Karimnagar on Wednesday. Tension prevailed in Manakondur village as a group of people attacked the police station and vandalised furniture, CCTV cameras and damaged a police vehicle.
This followed the suicide of Shravan, 23, who was one of the five youths, who were asked to come to the police station on Wednesday after they allegedly abused and clashed with a policeman during Dasara procession on Tuesday night.
