Talking to reporters here today, Kadapa DSP Rajeswar Reddy said that Rajaratnam, who was head of the family, tried to hide the murder of his daughter-in-law Mounika and later encouraged his son as well as others to commit more murders to misguide everyone, including the police, about the mysterious disappearance of his son Krupakar, daughter-in-law Mounika and his three grandchildren.
The DSP said that Rajaratnam should have averted the deaths of his son and grandchildren, if he had informed the murder of his daughter-in-law Mounika, who was killed by her husband Krupakar, to the police.
Meanwhile, district authorities have cancelled Rajaratnam's gun license, the DSP said.
