11 Jul
Summary
- Woman found murdered in lake near Lalgudi ten days ago.
- Suspects remain at large, sparking a road blockade protest.
- Police formed five special teams but no arrests made yet.
Ten days after a 32-year-old woman's murder near Lalgudi in Trichy district, authorities have yet to apprehend any suspects, prompting outrage from the community. The victim, a mother of two, went missing on the evening of June 30 after leaving her home. Her body was discovered bound and naked in Sirukalapur lake the following morning.
In response to the perceived lack of action, dozens of protesters, including the victim's relatives, blocked the Trichy-Chennai National Highway near Nedungur on Saturday. The demonstration caused considerable traffic disruption. Police officials engaged with the protesters, assuring them that efforts were underway to swiftly capture those responsible.
Five special police teams have been mobilized to investigate the crime. However, as of the report, no arrests have been made, and the perpetrators remain unidentified. Investigators have not ruled out the possibility of an attempted sexual assault in connection with the murder.
