CHENNAI: A former ward member of Adigathur gram panchayat near Tiruvallur was stabbed multiple times by a group of four men on Thursday night over personal enmity, said a Daily Thanthi report.
Jagadeesan (42), who works as a painter, was returning home after work when he was confronted near a playground in Adigathur village. At the time, Sedhuvar (19) and his three friends were consuming alcohol in the playground.
As there was a longstanding dispute between Sedhuvar and Jagadeesan, the group surrounded Jagadeesan and brutally attacked him with a knife, leaving him seriously injured, reported Daily Thanthi.
Passersby noticed him lying in a pool of blood and immediately rushed him to Tiruvallur Government Medical College Hospital in a ‘108’ ambulance. He is currently undergoing treatment.
Kadambattur police have registered a case and launched a search for Sedhuvar and his three associates.
