The Miryalguda police have arrested a young woman, Saritha, also known as Dr Pratyusha, for honey-trapping and blackmailing affluent youngsters. Saritha hails from Lavudi Thanda in Miryalguda mandal, Nalgonda district.

Authorities uncovered an extensive crime record for Saritha, including multiple theft cases registered under various police stations—Malakpet, Uppal, Chaitanyapuri, and Miryalguda 1 Town. Cheating cases against her were also filed at Narketpally and Nalgonda 2 Town police stations.

Saritha’s deceptive tactics extended to making false emergency calls to senior police officials in Hyderabad, including a deputy superintendent of police (DSP) and a circle inspector (CI) in Miryalguda, creating confusion by claiming serious crimes such as murders.

Only days before her arrest, she dialed the emergency number 100 to threaten the Vanasthalipuram police, falsely claiming to be the wife of a DSP.

The case escalated when Saritha attempted to extort money from a young man, threatening to kill him if he did not pay. The victim reported this to Nalgonda 2 Town Police, leading to her capture.

Police were stunned by the breadth of Saritha’s criminal activities, which involved extorting lakhs from victims lured through honey-trapping schemes. She was quietly remanded to judicial custody by the Nalgonda police.
