PUDUCHERRY: Nine persons were arrested here in connection with the murder of AIADMK functionary Kandasamy (41) in Vanarapet on September 9. According to Senior Superintendent of Police V J Chandran, previous enmity between the AIADMK functionary and a life convict, ‘Murder’ Manigandan, who is currently lodged in the Kalapet Central jail, resulted in the murder.The arrested persons were identified as Aiyappan (22), Ravi Sathish (22), Susairaj Raj (22), Bharath (24), Dandapani (23), Thileep (22), Vinoth (23), Sankar alias Kulla Sankar (21) and Anthony alias ‘Roll’ Anthony (22). They were arrested by the Mudaliarpet police on Sunday. An Innova car and the weapons allegedly used for committing the crime were also seized. Meanwhile, another person injured in the attack, Sundaram, was recuperating in a hospital here. The SSP said that Manigandan, who had personal enmity towards Kandasamy as he produced witnesses against him in a murder case in 1998, wanted to eliminate Kandasamy and planned the murder from the Kalapet jail. Manigandan used a mobile to get in touch with the accused and plan the murder, he said.When asked how a life convict used a mobile phone, despite a jamming device being installed in the Kalapet prison, Chandran said the inmates may be using cell phones with higher frequency.  He added that it was up to the prison authorities to further investigate the breach.
