Mogalthuru Moneylender Case Solved: 4 Arrested in West Godavari · deccanchronicle.com

Grandhi Bobby was a moneylender who lived alone in Mogalthuru.

Police say four people planned to rob him and killed him on June 15.

They allegedly took money and jewellery from his home.

Neighbours noticed a bad smell on June 17 and alerted Bobby’s son.

Because the body had decomposed, people first thought Bobby had died naturally.

A drunken confession reportedly led to the discovery that he had been murdered.

His son then went to the police.

Police arrested four people and seized silver, cash and a car.

They said some gold pledged with financing companies was still to be recovered.
