Sunday, March, 1 2026 - A local political party youth wing leader was arrested in Tamil Nadu, India under the Protection of Children from S3xual Offences Act in connection with the d3ath of a two and half years old girl he r@ped.
The Anchetty police arrested the suspect identified as
Periyanayagam, 40, of Sesurajapuram, on Friday.
According to an investigation officer, Periyanayagam was
having an affair with a 24-year-old woman, who was separated from her husband
and living with her parents.
The young woman had a daughter aged two and half years in her
marriage.
"She took the toddler to a private hospital at Anchetty
on Dec 11, 2025, stating the child had seizures. Doctors declared the child
brought d3ad," the officer said.
Based on a complaint lodged by the child's father, the
Anchetty police registered a case of suspicious d3ath and initiated a
probe.
"A postmortem was performed, and the autopsy report that
was out very recently showed significant internal injuries, prompting us to
treat the case as a criminal matter," the officer said.
Investigators found that the girl's mother was in a
relationship with Periyanayagam, who s3xually assaulted the child while the
mother was away.
"The girl succumbed to the injuries sustained in the
s3xual assault," the officer said.
He said Periyanayagam is being held at the Dharmapuri
sub-jail under judicial custody after he was produced before the Krishnagiri
court.
