Radha Krishna, which were collected for the maintenance of Warangal-based conjoined twins Veena and Vani. By June 2015, nearly Rs 25 lakh had been collected for the twins. The court directed the Saroornagar police to register a case under Section 406, 420, 403 and 120(b) and submit a detailed report on the incident by 16 November.
