Azadnagar corporator Gowramma, who was arrested by the City police, in connection with the Lingaraju murder case on Wednesday morning at Thanjavur in Tamil Nadu, was produced before the I ACMM Court Thursday morning.

As the police sought her custody submitting that they need more time for the investigation, Justice Venkatesh R Hulagi remanded her to police custody for three days.

Lingaraju was hacked to death on November 20 by a gang that was allegedly hired by Gowramma’s husband Govindaraju. The murder was said to be a revenge killing as Lingaraju had lodged a complaint against Gowramma and Govindaraju with the Lokayukta police.

A special team from Chamarajpet police station arrested Gowramma.
