In Andhra Pradesh CM's constituency, woman labourer tied to tree by moneylender, harassed over Rs 80,000 loan; husband flees village
CHITTOOR: A 25-year-old woman labourer, Sirisha, was publicly tied to a tree by a local moneylender after her husband failed to repay a loan of Rs 80,000. The incident occurred in Narayanapuram village, located in the Kuppam assembly constituency, represented by Andhra Pradesh chief minister Chandrababu Naidu. Sirisha's husband, Thimmarayappa, had borrowed Rs 80,000 from moneylender Muni Kannappa around three years ago. Unable to repay the loan with interest on time, Thimmarayappa fled the village, abandoning his family. Following his disappearance, the moneylender began harassing Sirisha to recover the debt, subjecting her to verbal abuse whenever he encountered her. On Monday, Muni Kannappa dragged Sirisha in public and tied her to a tree, ignoring the cries of her two minor children. Locals who tried to record the incident faced aggression from the moneylender. After being alerted, cops rescued Sirisha and her kids. Following widespread social media outrage over the incident, chief minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu condemned the act and directed the Chittoor police to arrest the culprit. Authorities confirmed that Muni Kannappa has been taken into custody and charged under multiple sections of the BNS Act.

Woman tied to tree, thrashed over unpaid loan in Andhra Pradesh CM Chandrababu Naidu's constituency; moneylender held
TIRUPATI: A 25-year-old woman was tied up to a tree by a moneylender after her husband failed to repay a loan of Rs 80000. This inhumane incident was reported at Narayanapuram village in Kuppam assembly constituency represented by Andhra Pradesh chief minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu in Chittoor district. The victim was identified as Sirisha, who works as a daily wage labourer at Narayanapuram. Her husband Thimmarayappa had borrowed a sum of Rs 80000 from a local moneylender Muni Kannappa about three years ago. Thimmarayappa couldn't repay the borrowed money with interest on time and when Muni Kannappa pressurised him to repay his loan, Thimmarayappa abandoned his family and fled away from the village. After Thimmarayappa fled away, the moneylender began harassing his wife to repay the loan and he often used to hurl abuses at her whenever he found her in the streets. Not stopping with the abuses, in a bid to exert more pressure on Sirisha, Muni Kannappa once again entered into a heated altercation with her on Monday, dragged her in full public glare and tied her up to a tree at Narayanapuram village, in an extreme act of humiliation. The deafening cries of Sirisha's two minor children also did not deter Muni Kannappa from his demeaning act of tying up a helpless woman to a tree in a bid to force her to repay his loan. When local tried to film and photograph Muni Kannappa's inhumane act, he tried to attack them as well. Kuppam police, who learnt about the incident, rushed to Narayanapuram village and rescued Sirisha from the moneylender's clutches. After reports of the incident went viral on various social media platforms on Tuesday, chief minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu expressed anguish over the barbaric act of the moneylender and directed the Chittoor district police administration to immediately arrest him and initiate legal proceedings against him. Chittoor police informed the CM that they had already arrested Muni Kannappa and have booked a case against him under various sections of the BNS Act.
