Ten years have passed since a brutal murder shook Hyderabad's AG Colony, but the case remains open with no arrests. The crime, which occurred in the upscale neighbourhood, has left investigators and the victim's family searching for answers.
Police records show that despite initial leads and witness statements, the trail went cold. Officers have not disclosed full details of the evidence gathered at the time.
On the night of the murder, the victim was found dead inside their home in AG Colony. Neighbours reported hearing no unusual sounds. The body was discovered the next morning.
Investigators combed the area for clues but found no clear suspect. The motive remains unclear, with robbery and personal enmity both considered but never proven.
Hyderabad police formed a special team to probe the murder, but the case hit a dead end. Key witnesses either recanted their statements or could not provide actionable information.
Officials have not publicly commented on the case in recent years. Files remain in the cold case unit, but no fresh leads have emerged.
The victim's relatives have repeatedly appealed to the police and courts for closure. They hold out hope that someone with information will come forward.
โWe have not given up,โ a family member said in a recent interview. โWe want the person responsible to be held accountable.โ The family has also sought the reopening of the investigation, but authorities have not confirmed any new steps.
The case is one of several unsolved murders in the city that continue to puzzle law enforcement.
With no fresh developments, the AG Colony murder remains a cold case. Police have not ruled out revisiting the evidence, but no timeline has been set. The victim's family continues to wait for a breakthrough that may never come.
