Family members of Gade Sai Krishna, who has been missing for a month, allege that the Krishnalanka police of NTR Commissionerate tortured and beat him to death in custody. They demanded a judicial probe into the matter and called for those responsible to be held accountable. The case has sparked a political storm with YSRCP leaders demanding an independent investigation, while Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC) vice-president Kolanukonda Shivaji blamed the police for failing to register an FIR. Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu ordered the suspension of the Krishnalanka Circle Inspector and instructed that a senior IPS officer investigate the case.
