showed the ration card and voter’s id and the police have taken the Xerox copy of the
identity cards and gave them a letter. They reached Thiruppathi at 6.p.m in the evening.

husband’s body and felt that there was one leg missing. They had given the intestines as a
bundle separately. His eyes were come out and so I suspected about my husband’s death.
I remembered what Mr. Venkatesh told me and I understood that the police arrested,
tortured, hacked legs and killed my husband. There was a protest held on the killing of Mr.
Sasikumar and Mr. Murugan. So we did not bury my husband’s body and kept it with
suspicion. We tried to lift the body to the protesting place but the police stopped us to take
the body. So, we kept the body in our house.
Since Mrs. Muniammal, w/o Mr. Sasikumar filed a case in High court of Chennai, the
judge ordered to keep the bodies in Government Hospital, Thiruvannamaai. So, my
husband’s body, and the bodies of Mahendran, Munusamy, Sasikumar, Murugan and

Vettakipalayam burial ground.

Jeyalalitha, one lakh from Karunanithi and 50,000/ from Vijayakanth.
