Chennai's Third Police Encounter in 2 Months: Seizing Raja Shot Dead
In Chennai's third police encounter in under two months, Seizing Raja, an alleged history-sheeter, was shot dead by police after being arrested in Andhra Pradesh. Police claim Raja opened fire, prompting them to retaliate in self-defense. This comes after key accused Thiruvengadam was killed in a police encounter in July, followed by the death of Kakkathoppu Balaji, another history-sheeter, just days ago. The spate of encounter killings has raised questions about police actions in Tamil Nadu.
