Murder of students (symbolic image)
A young man from Telangana’s Kaman district was shot dead by gangsters at a petrol station in the US. He used to work there. Family members provided the information on Saturday. Madhusudan Thatha, a member of the Bharatiya Janata Party in the Telangana Legislative Council, cited preliminary information received from the United States that 22-year-old Sethja Nukarapu died late on Friday night, Indian time. Sai Teja Nukarapu was shot to death at a gas station near Chicago.
Madhusudan met the victim’s parents at their residence near Kaman. He told reporters that Setja was not on duty when the incident occurred, but was helping a friend who asked him to stay for a while. My friend went out to work.
A family member of Setja told the media that he had studied a Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) in India and was now studying for an MBA in the United States and working part-time there. “I was saddened to learn that Setja was shot while staying at work to help a friend,” he said.
The Member of Legislative Council (MLC) said he has sought help from members of the Telugu Association of North America (TANA) in the matter. The body is expected to arrive in India next week. The MLC said Sai Teja was not on duty when the incident occurred but was helping a friend who asked him to stay for some time. My friend went out to work.
