Coimbatore: The decomposed body of a 31-year-old engineer was discovered in a rented house in Uppilipalayam, Coimbatore, on September 1. The deceased, identified as Manikandan, was a native of Karuvallur near Avinashi in Tiruppur district.

Manikandan, an engineering graduate and unmarried, had been living alone in the rented accommodation. According to sources, he had been investing in the online stock market and was reportedly facing significant losses, which had been causing him mental distress.
