Arrested Sukku Kaapi Suresh and deceased Arunkumar and Padappai Suresh

CHENNAI: Chennai city police solved the double murder case reported in Kotturpuram by arresting at least 12 people, including three who assisted and supported the assailants in executing the murder on Tuesday.
They are being brought to the city on Tuesday, and they will be remanded in judicial custody.
The gang members hacked two anti-socials, Arunkumar, 25, and his friend Padappai Suresh, 25, while they were sleeping inside the Nagavalli Amman Koil in Kotturpuram on Sunday night.
One of the police teams apprehended the prime suspect, Sukku Kaapi Suresh, 26, of Singaperumal Koil near Maraimalai Nagar, from a hideout in Salem, while the others were arrested from various other places, including Thiruverkadu and other suburban areas of the city.
The arrested suspects were identified as Sam, Premkumar, Saran, and eight others. Preliminary investigations revealed that Sukku Kaapi Suresh murdered Arunkumar as the latter devised a plan to eliminate the former in retaliation for his girlfriend Sahinsha’s murder reported at Kelambakkam in 2022.
Apart from this, Arunkumar’s brother Arjunan was against the drug business run by Sukku Kaapi Suresh, which targeted youngsters and engaged school dropout students.
While Arunkumar was organising gangs to eliminate Sukku Kaapi Suresh, he planned to overrun the duo’s plan. He engaged the gang members and killed Arunkumar.
As per his plan, the prime suspect Sukku Kaapi Suresh planned to target Arunkumar’s brother Arjunan. As he was not there, Padappai Suresh, who was with Arunkumar, was killed.
