In a dramatic twist to the death of 24-year-old photographer Praveen, whose death was initially believed to have resulted from a train accident, two men from Karur surrendered before a Coimbatore court in connection with the case. Police are now investigating the incident as an alleged murder and are seeking custody of the accused.
Coimbatore: A major twist has emerged in the death of 24-year-old photographer Praveen from Madathur near Thadagam in Coimbatore district, whose death was initially believed to have been caused by a train accident.
Praveen had left home last week after informing his family that he had received a photography assignment in Oddanchatram. When he failed to return, his family lodged a missing person complaint with the Thadagam Police, who launched a search operation.
Meanwhile, the body of a young man was found in a mutilated state on the railway tracks behind ABC Theatre near Kinathukadavu. Following an investigation by the Podanur Railway Police, the deceased was identified as Praveen. Based on the condition of the body, the death was initially treated as a train accident.
In a dramatic development, Manojkumar and his friend Karthikeyan, both natives of Karur district, surrendered before the Judicial Magistrate Court-I in Coimbatore on Monday.
Here’s a refined version with smoother flow and standard news style:
According to initial reports,the accused allegedly planned to kill Praveen over a love-related dispute. They are alleged to have lured him to Oddanchatram on the pretext of a photography assignment before allegedly strangling him to death.
Later dumped Praveen’s body on the railway tracks near Kinathukadavu to make the death appear as a train accident or suicide. Investigators believe the body was subsequently run over by a passing train, resulting in severe mutilation.
The Thadagam Police and the Podanur Railway Police are continuing their investigation into the case. According to reports, the two accused have been remanded to judicial custody.
The case has drawn widespread attention across Coimbatore, with investigators continuing to probe the circumstances surrounding Praveen’s death.
