Coimbatore: A drunken argument near a private liquor shop on the Pollachi-Valparai Road turned fatal, resulting in the death of a 21-year-old man. The Pollachi East Police have arrested two individuals in connection with the murder.

The police identified the suspects as Faisal from Suleswaranpatti and Vimal from Mothirapuram. The duo was apprehended while roaming in the Pollachi area.
