Hyderabad, Oct 19

A bullet was recovered from a passenger at Hyderabad Metro Station here, police said.

A 9 mm bullet was found in the bag of a youth at Moosapet Metro Station on Saturday night. The passenger was identified as Mohammed, a native of Bihar, who works in a fabrication unit here.

The incident came to light when Mohammed placed his bag for screening before boarding the metro. Security personnel at the station noticed the bullet during the screening of the luggage and immediately alerted the higher officials.

The passenger was detained and handed over to police. On a complaint by the Metro security officials, a case was registered at Kukatpally Police Station.

Police launched an investigation to determine how the bullet came into the passenger's possession. A police officer said they were questioning the youth, who resides in Pragathinagar.

Moosapet Metro Station last month witnessed a stabbing incident. A 19-year-old girl was injured in an attack by her boyfriend.

The accused, 20, allegedly stabbed the woman in the stomach with a blade in a fit of rage. Police investigations revealed that the accused was upset as she was avoiding him because of his alcohol addiction.

According to police, the two had studied together at a government school in Moosapet until Class 10 and had got into a relationship. Even after discontinuing their studies due to financial reasons, they continued their friendship. Recently, the relations turned sour when the accused developed alcohol addiction, and she started avoiding him because of the addiction.

Meanwhile, police in Nizamabad town of Telangana continued the hunt for the accused who allegedly killed a police constable.

The constable was allegedly stabbed to death by a habitual offender after being caught in connection with a bike theft case in Nizamabad on the night of October 17.

Constable E. Pramod, 42, along with his nephew, went to arrest Riyaz. Pramod was riding the bike while his nephew was pillion-riding, and the accused was made to sit between them.

The 24-year-old accused suddenly attacked Pramod with a knife. When Pramod's nephew tried to prevent him, the accused stabbed him as well. Two aides of Riyaz came on a bike and took him away. Though a Sub-Inspector tried to stop them, they attacked him as well.

When Pramod was shifted to a hospital, he was pronounced dead by doctors. Pramod's nephew was undergoing treatment.

First the stabbing incident last month, now bullets found in metro stations. Hyderabad Metro needs to enhance security measures urgently. Public safety should be top priority.

As someone who uses Moosapet Metro daily, this is really concerning. The article jumps between multiple incidents which makes it confusing. Focus should be on the bullet recovery case specifically.

The poor constable Pramod's story is heartbreaking 💔 He died while doing his duty. We need to support our police force better and ensure their safety while they protect us.

Why is a fabrication worker carrying a bullet? Either it's a genuine mistake or something more serious. Police investigation must be thorough and transparent.
