Hyderabad: An industrialist from Andhra Pradesh was stabbed 73 times by his grandson over a property dispute.

The deceased identified as Velamati Chandrasekhar Janardhan Rao was the owner of Veljan Group of Companies, and was staying at his residence in Hyderabad.

Janardhan Rao was murdered by at his grandson Keerthi Teja at his residence on Thursday night. The incident came to light late on Saturday after police arrested the accused kin.

His US-returned grandson Keerthi Teja allegedly stabbed him with a knife 73 times after a heated argument over property.

Janardhan Rao, 86, who hailed from Eluru in Andhra Pradesh, has been living at his residence in Somajiguda here for the last few months.

He had recently appointed his eldest daughter’s son, Srikrishna as Director of Veljan Group and transferred shares worth Rs 4 crore to Keerthi Teja, son of his second daughter Sarojini Devi.

According to police, Sarojini Devi and her son visited Janardhan Rao’s residence on Thursday. There was an argument between Janrdhan Rao and Keethi Teja over the distribution of property.

Accusing his grandfather of unfair treatment, Keerthi Teja allegedly took out a knife he had brought with him and stabbed Rao repeatedly.

The 29-year-old stabbed Rao as many as 73 times resulting in his death on the spot.

Sarojini Devi, who had gone into the kitchen to bring tea, returned upon hearing the commotion and tried to intervene. Keerthi also allegedly attacked her and she sustained four stab wounds.

He was subsequently produced before a court, which sent him to judicial custody.
