A dramatic scene unfolded in Yellareddygudem, Narketpally, Nalgonda district, on Monday night, September 17, when locals caught a suspected thief. The thief, Pogala Ganesh, was tied to a pole and, when he expressed hunger, was fed ‘pulihora’ by one of the villagers. This unusual act of kindness gained attention after a video of Ganesh being fed circulated.
Ganesh confessed to stealing from temples, schools, and individuals, claiming his family was unaware of his activities. He also revealed that he had never been caught by the police before. The villagers had been vigilant due to recent burglaries in the area, leading to Ganesh’s capture.
