In a series of shocking incidents, three separate cases of violence have shaken the town of Rajapalayam.

The first incident revolves around 32-year-old Saravanan, son of Ramasamy, a resident of Duraisamypuram in Rajapalayam. Saravanan, who is unmarried, worked as an employee at a government TASMAC outlet under the Rajapalayam Railway Over Bridge. Allegations suggest that he was involved in the illegal sale of liquor in the black market in the same area. It is reported that more than 10 individuals from the Duraisamypuram area were engaged in similar illegal activities.

Tensions have been brewing between these two parties due to disputes over the sale of liquor. Saravanan, taking advantage of his position at the bar, reportedly hoarded large quantities of liquor bottles and sold them in the black market during the closure of TASMAC shops on government holidays and important days.

Last night, a clash erupted between the two parties as they fought over the distribution of liquor bottles. Enraged by Saravanan’s alleged illegal activities, members of the opposing party, under the influence of alcohol and ganja, attacked and hacked Saravanan to death.

In another disturbing incident, a youth was hacked to death in the Mudugudi area under the South police station last night, following a social dispute. Additionally, a young man attempted to set a woman on fire by pouring kerosene on her in an unrelated incident.

These three incidents, all occurring on the same day, highlight the state of law and order in Tamil Nadu.
