The police officer said Yellaiah, the resident of Moula Ali of Racha Konda Commissionerate on the city outskirts, was suffering from acute mental disorder. He was later sent to mental hospital.
The DCP since entire Falaknuma Palace was meticulously checked for last 3 days and was being watched by police through 150 CC cameras, they did not react in panic.
While police was taking care of the security in and around the palace, the inner layers of security were manned by US security agencies and Special Protection Group (SPG).
