The Telangana government has taken another major step in the Bandi Bhagirath POCSO case by creating a new Special Investigation Team under the leadership of Joint Commissioner of Police Shwetha. The latest development comes as the case continues to attract widespread public attention.
Officials decided to form the new team after several social media posts connected to the case triggered concern. Authorities observed the circulation of alleged misinformation, inappropriate content and sensitive details related to the victim and the ongoing legal process.
Police sources said that online platforms witnessed large scale sharing of photographs, videos and other material linked to the case. The spread of personal details and content involving the minor victim raised serious concerns and drew criticism from multiple sections.
Investigators are also examining posts that allegedly targeted members of the judiciary with inappropriate comments and misleading narratives. Police had already taken action in connection with some social media activity and initiated further inquiries into those involved.
Hyderabad Police are expected to focus on tracing the origin of the online content, identifying individuals behind such posts and examining whether there was any organized attempt to spread misinformation. Officials believe the fresh SIT investigation will help speed up the process and strengthen the overall probe into the matter.
