Bhanu pocketed Rs 200 crore with YSR's project

The Crime Investigation Department (CID) officials have revealed that Bhanu incurred a gain of Rs 200 crore in Handri-Neeva project. This is done by taking contracts and sub-contracts of the project using benami names.

Although Bhanu has done several deals without Suri's knowledge, the investments in Handri-Neeva were made following the orders of his leader. Using his good contacts with former chief minister late YS Rajasekhar Reddy, Suri acquired the contracts of the project. The Handri-Neeva Sujala Sravanthi project is intended to provide irrigation facility to four districts in the Rayalaseema region. Late YSR laid the foundation stone for this mega project.

The money earned through land settlements was invested in this project. If Suri and his gang could earn Rs 200 crore in a single project, how much would be their total assets worth! A through investigation by the CID officials will expose many shocking facts about the atrocities of this dangerous gang.

Bhanu - The mastermind behind Suri

Bhanu Kiran, the prime accused in Maddelacheruvu Suri's murder, claims that he is the mastermind behind 'Brand Suri'.

According to the CID Officials, Suri has no direct invovement in any of the deals and settlements. It was Bhanu who used to take care of all these matters. If anyone approaches Suri seeking his help, he has the habit of assigning the task to his close aide Bhanu. Taking advantage of it, Bhanu used Suri's name for several settlements and amassed wealth. All this has been done without Suri's knowledge.

The entire police department breathed a sigh of relief after the most wanted criminal was arrested in Zaheerabad on Saturday. Few months back, the CID officials has missed him by a whisker in Nagpur when Bhanu vacated the hotel room just before the cops arrived at the spot. The call records confirm that Bhanu travelled all over the country, except Jammu-Kashmir and the North-East.

Why Bhanu was rushed to jail at Midnight?

Factionist Maddelacheruvu Suri's murderer Bhanu Kiran complained that there is threat to his life from the opponents (mainly Suri gang), after his arrest at Zaheerabad when he was on his way to Hyderabad from Mumbai. So, he was immediately produced before the magistrate after the press meet with media-persons. After taking orders from the magistrate, the CID officials had rushed him to the Cherlapally jail on Saturday midnight.

A special high-security block in Cherlapally jail has been allotted to Bhanu Kiran. Generally, around 20 inmates will share a single barrack. In November 2008, Moddu Seenu (the prime accused in Paritala Ravi murder case) was killed by his fellow prisoner Om Prakash in Anantapur prison. Taking this incident into account, a separate cell was given to Bhanu by the jail authorities.

Reports say, Suri's gang has pleadged to kill Bhanu. Their plans to catch Bhanu before the police could get him didn't work. As now Bhanu is in the prison, Suri's gang is using their past contacts with politicians and jail authorities to assassinate him.

Bhanu's first shock to CID Officials

Seems like, Bhanu Kiran is enjoying all the attention he has been getting after the murder of factionist Maddelacheruvu Suri. When the CID officials insisted him to wear a black cloth to cover his face to produce him before the media, Bhanu refused to do so.

Instead, he questioned the sleuths "Why do you want me to wear the mask? and What do you want to prove by doing so? Everyone knows me very well and there is nothing to hide". He also hinted that if he was produced before the media with a mask, the CID officials will land in trouble. "Media and the people might think that the cops have produced someone else in the name of Bhanu, to divert the some other issue or to close Suri's murder case file," he said.

Initially, the CID officials feared that producing Bhanu without covering his face might trigger violence in Anantapur district. Although the cops had planned to produce Bhanu before the media for just a few minutes, the pressure mounted by mediapersons has forced them to prolong it till the end of pressmeet. In fact, Bhanu's free advice about the mask has shocked the CID officials as they had never experienced such thing before.

Home Minister behind Suri's murder

The arrest of slain factionist Maddelacheruvu Suri's killer Bhanu Kiran has given a chance to the TDP chief Chandrababu Naidu to attack home minister Sabitha Indra Reddy and ruling Congress. He alleged that the home minister had a role in the murder of Suri.

"Everyone who were involved in Paritala Ravi's murder case are being eliminated one-by-one. It has gone to a stage that everyone suspected Bhanu Kiran will meet the same fate. Home Minister had a role in Suri's murder. Sabita's Son and Bhanu Kiran has jointly done several settlements and encroached lands in the state. They had committed several atrocities in the past. The investigation should be done in a way to expose everyone who were involved in this murder," said Babu.

The news about Bhanu that he recently attended a minister's meeting in Bangalore has given strength to the reports of his political connection. If Bhanu opens his mouth, several fishes will land in trouble.

Bhanu Kiran reminds 'Cool Babu' in Dookudu

Bhanu Kiran, the prime accused in slain factionist leader Maddelacheruvu Suri's murder case, surprised everyone by appearing very relaxed when he was produced before the media on Saturday evening by the CID police.

When the CID IG Ramanamurthy was busy explaining how the special teams finally nabbed the most wanted, Bhanu looked completely at ease and kept smiling all through. This shows that Bhanu is not feeling guilty about killing Suri.

Bhanu Kiran reminds us of Dookudu's 'Cool Babu' (one who handles any situation with ease). Killing a high profile personality like Suri has made him a celebrity in his own right. The way in which the mediapersons competed to cover Bhanu's every move at the DGP Office confirms it. Seems like, Bhanu too is enjoying his new found status!

Bhanu finally reveals reasons for killing Suri

During the interrogation, Bhanu Kiran confessed before the CID that he himself had killed factionist leader Maddelacheruvu Suri. He also explained the reasons that prompted him to commit the crime. The reasons are listed below:

1. Fear of being killed in the hands of Suri someday

2. Suri abused Bhanu's mother and sister

3. Suri ill-treated Bhanu several times before his associates

4. Suri abused Bhanu for amassing huge wealth using his name

Bhanu revealed that it took him four months to plan the murder sketch and waited for the right time to execute it. He took the help of four of his friends to escape, after shooting Suri from point blank range.

The CID police arrested Bhanu at Zaheerabad in Amrit Dhaba at around 1 pm on Saturday, when he is on his way back to Hyderabad from Mumbai to collect money from his friend Madhu. An AK-47 riffle and 5 bullets were recovered from him.
