Medak: Accusing the police of filing a false case against him and his two sons under influence of his rivals in the village, a farmer attempted suicide by consuming a pesticide while shooting a selfie video at Konthanpally in Shivvampet mandal on Thursday.
The farmer Chelli Naveen accused Chelli Lakshman and his wife Mounika of filing false cases against him and his two sons Vishnuvardhan and Harshavardhan. However, Naveen said they just tried to calm down Lakshman and Chelli Anjaneyulu while they both were quarrelling over some land issue in the village recently.
Taking it as an opportunity, Naveen alleged that Lakshman influenced the police to file a case against them. After tracing Naveen near an agriculture field in the village, the villagers rushed him to a local hospital. Later, he was taken to a corporate hospital in Hyderabad for better treatment. His condition is said to be critical. The police registered a case and the probe was on.
