In Dallas, a 28-year-old Hyderabadi man was shot dead one month after the horrific decapitation of Nagamallaiah

Just one month after another Indian man, Chandra Mouli Nagamallaiah, was decapitated in the same city, Chandrashekar Pole, 28, was shot dead by an unidentified shooter on Friday night while he was working at a gas station in Dallas, Texas. After earning his bachelor's degree in dental surgery in India, Chandrashekar Pole, a native of Hyderabad, began his further education in the United States in 2023. He was working part-time at the gas station while searching for a full-time position after completing his US master's degree.

The family of the student has asked the authorities for assistance in returning their son's body from the United States. Former Telangana minister T Harish Rao, a BRS MLA, echoed the family's request. On Saturday, Rao and Sudhir Reddy, another BRS MLA, went to the student's house in Hyderabad to meet his family.

"It is heartbreaking to see the anguish that the parents are going through, knowing that their son, whom they thought would achieve great things, is no longer with them. In a social media post, Rao stated, "We, on behalf of BRS, demand that the state government take initiative and make efforts to bring Chandra Shekhar's mortal remains to his hometown as soon as possible."
