Former naxal and TRS leader Konapuri Ramulu was shot dead by some unidentified men at a function hall in Miryalguda, Nalgonda, on Sunday.
Ramulu had gone to Baig Function Hall to attend the marriage of the daughter of his friend and New Democracy leader Parvathalu. While he was returning, some unidentified men over-powered his gunmen and sprinkled chilli powder in his eyes. He was then shot from point-blank range in the head and chest, leading to his instant death.
Ramulu hailed from Dasireddygudem of Valigonda mandal.
TRS President K Chandrasekhar Rao strongly condemned Ramulu's killing, and demanded stern action against the guilty. (INN)
