According to reports, Kasibugga police received information about the death of an unknown person in the farm fields in Adavi Kotturu at Sampangi Puram, Kasibugga-Palasa area on Monday morning. Sub-inspector Kotturu Sirisha reached the place along with constables. She said that since it was difficult to get the body to the vehicle as it was located in the farms, she requested villagers to help but they refused.

Taking initiative the lady SI came forward and carried the dead body with the help of Lalita Charitable Trust member in a makeshift stretcher. She took the body to her vehicle parked one kilometer away from the spot in half an hour and this was captured on camera by a local. After seeing her carrying the dead body, few villagers came forward and extended help.
