By Our Staff ReporterThe city police have solved

the murder of a woman, whosehalf-burned body wasrecovered from bushes inPazhaveli in Chengalpet onMay 28, with the arrest of aman she had been in arelationship with in MGR Nagaron June 3.

Investigators said D. Bala-murugan (30) of Jafferkhanpetkilled Pokkisha Mary (33) ofAnna Nagar by bludgeoningher with a pressure cooker.

Though the dental bracesthat the police found on thebody led them to suspect thatthe victim was Jesna (20), fromPathanamthitta district inKerala, who went missing onMarch 22, a probe ruled out thepossibility.

Pokkisha’s father, Aruldoss,who had lodged a missingpersoncomplaint, heard of thepolice recovering a burned body.He confirmed that the remainswere of his daughter. The policeapprehended Balamurugan bygoing through Pokkisha’scellphone call details, aninvestigating officer said.

Balamurugan told the policethat Pokkisha had beenpressing him to leave his wifefor her. Investigators collected

CCTV camera footageconfirming the events leadingup to the crime, the officersaid.

He said. “Balamuruganadmitted to killing Pokk-isha,Balamurugan and Pokk-isha had been in a relationshipsince 2008, but parted wayslast year. He then marriedanother woman. They havean eight-month-old child.

“He asked her to meet himon May 28 and Pokkisha lefthome early in the morning onher scooter. She reachedCMBT, Koyambedu, andparked her two-wheeler there.Balamurugan took her to hisfriend’s house in MGR Nagar.

“When she pressed formarriage, Balamurugan gotenraged and hit her with apressure cooker. She died onthe spot.

“Balamurugan then cleanedthe bloodstains on the floor,packed the body in a suitcaseand returned the keys of thehouse to his friend. He hired acab to Chengalpet and burnedthe body using kerosene hehad carried with him andreturned home”.

At least 50 persons wereinside the building at the time.

Fire and Rescue Servicepersonnel led by G. Selvaraj(Fire Officer. Ashok Nagar)rescued five persons whofainted after inhaling smoke.They were rushed to hospital.

As the persons on the 1st and2nd floors could not use thestaircase to come down,firemen used ladders to bringthem down.

An electrical short-circuit issuspected to have been thecause for the fire.

As soon as the fire started tospread, the staff of the shopsand offices cut off the mainpower supply.

“Though the fire did notspread beyond the ground floor,there was panic as thick smokestarted to spread to the higherfloors cutting off the escaperoute via the stairs. Some of ustook the risk and climbed downthe stairs and managed to exitthe building even though wewere blinded and choked by thesmoke,” said Mahendran (anemployee of a shop on the 1st

floor).According to an eyewitness,

one person raced to the terraceand managed to jump onto theterrace of an adjacent buildingto escape the fire.

Two fire tenders from theAshok Nagar and Teynampetfire stations were pressed intothe service. Two water tankerswere also used.

LETTERS TO THE EDITORBanking services via WhatsApp a good move

Sir, Kotak Bank and ICICI have announced that they will use the WhatsApp platform tooffer some banking services to customers on their registered mobile number.

It is a welcome move, provided the banks do not levy charges for the same.Unlike SMS that are one-way communications from the bank, customers can interact with

the bank through WhatsApp for information on service requests such as updating PAN, mobilenumber, email ID, Aadhaar number, activating/deactivating passbook, cancelling mandatesfor standing payments and changing their home branch.

Most banks levy charges for SMS services which affects poor persons and pensioners.With WhatsApp being a totally free platform, I hope that the banking services offered via

WhatsApp are free to customers.Will all other banks also follow suit to benefit its customers? N. Vijayaraghavan, 17,

18th Avenue, Ashok Nagar, Ph: 99626 64766

Corruption starts in your pocketSir, In most govt. offices including courts, RTO offices and district registrar offices, we can

see selfemployed persons offering services for a special fee.There is no harm in availing of such services as long as the agent does not ask for extra

payment for paying the officials to get a job done out of turn. We are often tempted to take theshort cut without realizing that we are the source for bribery.

There is enough transparency in all these offices owing to digitization and there is no needfor anyone to avail of the services of these touts who are invariably hand-in-glove with theofficials.

I rejected such an offer when I went to the registrar’s office recently and went through thedirect procedure to avail of the service without making any extra payment. But, the veryconduct of the official was suggestive of dissuading people from handling the job themselvesand routing the same through the brokers.

But I got the job done by myself. K. Harihar, T. Nagar

Rituals are part of culture and traditionally importantSir, This is with reference to the column ‘Afterwards’ written by M. A. Sadanand under his

popular ‘No Holds Barred’ column in Mambalam Times (June 2-8 issue). I beg to disagree with his view that in the olden days, as there were no other forms of

entertainment, ceremonies/rituals were performed mainly with the motive of bringing thefamily members together. In those days, the culture of joint family was prevalent and it is still

Appeal to remove ‘Parking Signs’ near Brindavan FlatsSir, Ever since Chennai Corporation provided parking space on P. T.

Rajan Road, a number of commercial/tourist vehicles regularly occupythe slots for days together causing difficulty for the residents/flatowners for at least occasional parking of their guests’ vehicles.

Before the parking signs were erected, residents’ requests werehonored by the owners of the commercial vehicles who moved theirvehicles so that guests’ vehicles could be comfortably parked. But, nowthey have the right to park their tourist vehicles at the spot.

We appeal to the traffic dept. to remove the parking signs installednear our flats for the benefit of the residents Dr. Prasad, BrindavanFlats, 86, P.T. Rajan Road, K. K. Nagar

in vogue in some families. Under the circumstances, the question ofcoming together of family members does not arise at all.
