Three individuals have been apprehended for the murder of a 70-year-old woman at her home in Rayakottai Thottam near Parapalayam in Tirupur. The arrested individuals are R Senthilkumar, A Pothiraj, and P Sathish, all of whom worked as tailors at a banyan company in Tirupur city. The victim, N Maniyammal, had been living alone for the past seven years following her husband’s demise. She had rented three properties in the neighborhood. On the evening of the incident, Maniyammal’s neighbors noticed her lying unconscious through the window and immediately informed the police. Unfortunately, when the police managed to break open the door, they found her dead. The police sent her body for a postmortem examination at the Tirupur Government Medical College Hospital. Maniyammal’s daughter, S Saraswathi, who arrived at the scene, alerted the police about her missing three-gram gold nose ring. The police registered a case against unidentified individuals under sections 302 and 380 of the Indian Penal Code and collected CCTV camera footage from the area. Through the footage, the police identified the suspects and took Senthilkumar into custody for questioning. During interrogation, Senthilkumar confessed that he had previously resided at the elderly woman’s residence and believed she had a substantial amount of money and gold. He planned to rob her and enlisted the help of his friends. The trio strangled Maniyammal to death using a mobile phone charger’s wire when she tried to raise an alarm. However, they were unable to find any valuables in the house and only managed to escape with her nose ring. All three suspects have been remanded in judicial custody..
