Hyderabad Sees Road Safety Drive, Murder, and Liquor Shop Dispute

In Hyderabad, the traffic police organized a road safety campaign called 'Arrive Alive' at Lumbini Park.

They asked people to pledge to follow traffic rules by giving a missed call to a special number.

Meanwhile, in Medak district, a man named Mahesh Kumar Verma killed his friend Mohammed Siraj over a small money dispute of ₹22 during a drinking session.

The police arrested Mahesh after he confessed to the crime.

In another incident, liquor shop owners in Munugode protested against new timings imposed by their local MLA, who wants shops to open later in the day to reduce morning drinking and drunk driving.

The excise department said they would look into the matter.

Additionally, a man named Satish from Karnataka was brutally stabbed to death by unidentified assailants on Shamsheer Ganj Road in Hyderabad.

Bystanders recorded the incident on their phones but did not intervene.

The police have launched an investigation and are scanning CCTV footage to identify the attackers.
