Woman’s body found in abandoned suitcase at Tamil Nadu railway station

What began as concern for fellow passengers quickly escalated into horror at the Minjur railway station, located on the outskirts of Chennai, Tamil Nadu when a body was discovered in a suitcase. Concerned that a middle-aged man had left his luggage behind, passengers at the station informed the police, only to discover a body inside.
This shocking incident unfolded late Monday night, November 4, after 43-year-old Balasubramaniam and his 17-year-old daughter arrived at the station with the large suitcase.
Witnesses report that after arriving, Balasubramaniam left the suitcase on the platform and began to walk away. Concerned passengers promptly alerted the Railway Protection Force (RPF) officers, that a man had left his baggage behind.
The RPF officials became suspicious as the suitcase was too big to be misplaced and contacted the Korukkupet Police, who immediately responded.
Sensing something was amiss, officers approached Balasubramaniam to inquire about the contents of the suitcase. However, his explanation was vague and raised further suspicions, leading the police to request he open the suitcase.
As Balasubramaniam unzipped the suitcase, those nearby were horrified to see the body of an elderly woman, wrapped in a plastic sheet, with visible head injuries. Police immediately detained both Balasubramaniam and his daughter, launching a detailed investigation into the incident.
Recently, a woman’s chopped up body was recovered from a suitcase in Chennai after a local noticed blood dripping from the bag. One man was detained in the case.
This comes amid Opposition parties slamming the ruling DMK for the rise in crimes in the state. A charge denied by Chief Minister MK Stalin-led government.
