P Jayaraj and his son J Bennicks were picked up by the Tuticorin police department for keeping their shop open during lockdown. They were thrashed an sexually assaulted by the police in custody,which resulted in their death.

They had shattered knee caps. Their chest hair was ripped from the skin. Metal topped batons were inserted into their rectum. This kind of brutality cannot be allowed to go on. We demand that vigilant action be taken against those involved and let the perpetrators get the harshest punishment.
