A WOMAN and her daughter were among seven people nabbed for the brutal killing of a politician, Malaysia Nanban reported.

Putta Ramu, 36, a BJP politician and candidate in the upcoming election in Andra Pradesh, was found dead at an apartment in Hyderabad.

During the investigation, it was revealed that he had become friendly a few years ago with a woman who had moved to Hyderabad after separating from her husband.

Himambi, 40, who learned that Ramu also ran an illegal gambling business, had started asking him for money.

Meanwhile, it is believed that Ramu was going after Himambi’s 19-year-old daughter Naseema and would not stop despite her mother’s objections.

Himambi and Naseema reportedly colluded with five gangsters who had prior enmity with Ramu and had him killed.
