From the information, the team members have an impression that it was a “well planned murder” as the deceased, a Dalit, was frequently involved in settling “issues” with caste Hindus in the locality, Mr. Marx said. The family members have not yet received the body, which was lying in the Government Hospital. A time-frame should be given and until the investigation, the police team including the SI of Police Thanga Muniasami should be placed under suspension. Addressing a press conference, the members led by Professor A. Marx said that they gathered information from as many as 100 persons including the family members of the deceased. A seven-member fact finding team from National Confederation of Human Rights Organisations - Tamil Nadu visited Usilankottai village near Thondi in Ramanathapuram district in connection with the ‘encounter’ death of Govindan (42) on the night of April 13 by a police team led by Sub Inspector Thanga Muniasami.
