A case was filed by Alangayam police. Farmer Murugesan was arrested and lodged at the sub jail in Tirupattur town.
Initial inquiry revealed that Murugesan brought the gun many years ago from his friends in Kerala to guard his crops from wild animals especially wild boar as the village is located near the reserve forest in Alangayam. However, police said he has not used the gun for the past few years due to poor eye sight and dumped the gun in the cowshed.
