Naidu attack: teams find no `local connections' in Surat

By Our Special Correspondent

AHMEDABAD OCT. 25. Police teams from Andhra Pradesh and Chhattisgarh which visited Surat in south Gujarat to look for "local connections" in the recent attack on the Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister, Chandrababu Naidu, have drawn a blank.

What brought the police teams to Surat was the fact that Lalitha, one of the suspects in the attack, who was arrested from Chhattisgarh, was earlier living with her parents in a slum in Pratapnagar area in Surat. The local police said though her parents were still living in Surat, Lalitha had left the city a couple of years ago and was living in Warangal. She is believed to have links with the People's War which attacked Mr. Naidu near Tirupati. The Andhra Pradesh police team interrogated Lalitha's parents.
