TAMIL NADU MURDER: Crime of passion soars

INDIA'S BEST COLLEGES, INSTITUTES and UNIVERSITIES

Spurned by lover, a woman kills his six-year-old son
When the media reported about the brutal killing of a six-year-old child by his father's girlfriend Poovarasi many in the sate were shocked. Sex has become the cause of many murders in Tamil Nadu.

Such cases have become common in Chennai and other parts of the state. It was September 2009 when for the first time such a case surfaced. Chennai was rattled by the murder of a music teacher. Initially nobody had expected that the unfolding of the woman's past would have a sexual angle to the case.

That was not only a one-off incident. Three more murders surfaced soon in that year only. And all of them had their root in passion. In one such incident, a nine-year-old girl was burned by an auto-driver. It was understood that the driver took this extreme step because he realised that the child was coming in way of his intimate encounter with the girl's mother.

In 2010 things drastically changed as more such cases came to the fore. Illicit relationship was the main reason behind five murders in Chennai and its suburbs. In the case of Poovarasi things were somewhat different. Police sources said that Poovarasi strangulated Aditya to death with a small rope to take revenge against his father Jayakumar, with whom she had been having an affair for the past few months.

Both of them developed intimate relationship at their workplace. During their close relationship, Poovarasi allegedly became pregnant twice. But she aborted the child on Jayakumar's insistence.

But after sometime Poovarasi insisted Jayakumar to marry her. When Jayakumar ' a father of two children ' refused to oblige her, she was furious. It was then that she thought of revenge and homed in on his young child. On the fateful day, she visited Jayakumar's house and took his son with his consent to a church. But she didn't return on that day.

The next day, far from Chennai in Nagappatinam bus stand a suspicious suitcase was found. When the cops opened it they found a dead body of a child. On further investigation it was found to be that of Aditya. Poovarasi succeeded in her devil design, but failed to take the cops for a ride. Now, she languishes in Puzhal prison in Chennai. Dr. Siva Nambi, a Chennai-based psychiatrist, said: 'It looks that this is the case of rejection. The woman was unable to control herself and thus committed a heinous crime. She had even gone to a church to seek forgiveness.'
