AIADMK Ex-Functionary Arrested in BSP Leader K. Armstrong’s Murder Case

The Greater Chennai Police (GCP) arrested a former AIADMK functionary, Ponnai Balu, in connection with the murder of BSP leader K. Armstrong, who was brutally hacked to death by a gang in Perambur on July 5.

Following a complaint from Armstrong’s brother Veeramani, the Sembium police registered a case and launched an investigation. The inquiry led to the arrest of 11 suspects, including Ponnai Balu, the brother of ‘Arcot’ Suresh, a history-sheeter murdered by a gang in Pattinambakkam the previous year. It is believed that Balu and the others murdered Armstrong to avenge Suresh’s death.

A special police team had previously arrested 14 suspects in connection with the case, and the investigation is ongoing.
