5 teenagers arrested for honor killing in Tirunelveli

A shocking incident in Tirunelveli is proof that casteism is rooted in some sections of Tamil Nadu to such an extent that even a teenager has gone to the extent of killing a man belonging to a different caste who was in love with his sister. Esakki Shankar a private bank employee was in love with his killer's sister and his parents supported him and even managed to convince the girl's parents.

On the verge of the marriage date being set the girl's brother studying in eleventh standard was teased by his friends about his sister's alliance with a low-class guy. Influenced by them the boy and his friends belonging to the same caste planned and murdered Shankar when he went to bath at the Thamirabarani river. A case has been registered and the juveniles have been arrested by the cops.
