A pregnant mother was violently murdered in Kayts on Tuesday.
27-year-old Ramsika Mary Gnaneswaran, seven months pregnant and mother-of-one, was beaten to death while home alone on Siruvil Road, Kayts.
Two suspects, reported to be steel traders from outside the area were arrested after Kayts police chased their auto down, and two further arrests were later made.
There were agitations outside Kayts police station, as furious locals demanded the suspects be handed over to them.
While police are investigating, the murderers’ motives are yet unknown.
Blood stains found around Mrs Gnaneswaran’s home and near the home’s well, where her body was found, indicated evidence of severely violent assault.
