A sub-inspector of police and two head constables were sentenced by an additional district sessions court, in connection with the death of a young man, Senthil Kumar, in 2010
The Additional District Sessions Court on Tuesday sentenced a sub-inspector of police and two policemen to undergo a 10-year jail term on charges of a death in custody reported in May 2010. In 2010, during a temple festival, the police received a complaint that a youth was brandishing knives, threatening devotees and telling them to part with their valuables. Following this, SI Thirumalai Muthusami and head constables Ponram and Ravichandran went to the spot. After inquiries, they picked up the youth identified as Senthil Kumar of Mottanampatti near Vadamadurai and took him to the police station, where he died later.
