Stalin said the party will support every legal endeavour to bring to justice those who were complicit in the alleged custodial deaths of the father-son duo, Jayaraj and Benicks, in Sattankulam in Thoothukudi and also announced a financial assistance of Rs. 25 lakh to their family.

Mr. Stalin alleged the two were subject to a beastly attack and torture by the police personnel of the Sattankulam police station. “The medical reports also confirm the torture marks on their bodies and we are expecting the post-mortem report.
