Virudhunagar: In a major breakthrough, police arrested two more suspects in connection with the burglary at the residence of the Sattur DMK candidate on Thursday night. The police also recovered 34 sovereigns of gold jewellery from the duo.
Suspects Identified and Remanded
The accused have been identified as Kanagaraj, 32, of Ettayapuram and Sakthivel, 21, of Paramakudi. Both were produced before the Sattur court and remanded in judicial custody.
Background of the Case
On April 14, 122 sovereigns of gold were reportedly stolen from the Sattur DMK candidate Kadarkarairaj's house in Venkatachalapuram. Following the incident, three special teams were formed to crack the case.
The investigation took a dramatic turn earlier this month when one suspect, Arokiya John Bosco, 40, surrendered in court. Subsequent inquiries led to the arrest of three more individuals, including the MLA's daughter-in-law, Abinaya, 30, Abinaya's friend Bhavani, 30, and her husband Suresh Kumar, 31, who was in an extramarital relationship with Abinaya.
Police continue to investigate the case and are on the lookout for any other suspects involved in the burglary.
