Alekhya, her sister-in-law, and the child were returning from a tailor at the time of the assault. Srikanth was her tracking movements and waylaid the trio before attacking her. The injured persons were rushed to a hospital in Nirmal and their medical condition was learnt to be stable.
The girl and youngster were friends and he proposed to her two years ago. After her refusal, the issue was resolved by the elders of the community. She was recently engaged to a boy from Jagtial. Though Srikanth tried to break the alliance, he failed and reportedly wanted to kill her for refusing his proposal.
