Overview
- Police allege brothers Mohanraj, 26, and Hariharan, 27, worked with four accomplices to kill their father, E P Ganesan, 56, for insurance payouts.
- Investigators say a non-fatal cobra bite days earlier was followed by a fatal October 22 attack identified as a krait bite to the neck inside the house.
- The Special Investigation Team flagged a delay in taking Ganesan to a nearby hospital and a call to the insurer within minutes of his death as key red flags.
- Call-record analysis and roughly ₹2 lakh in linked transfers allegedly tied the sons to G Balaji, B Prashanth, S Dinakaran, and G Naveenkumar.
- All six are under arrest and in judicial custody at Puzhal Prison as Tiruvallur police scrutinize multiple policies totaling about ₹3 crore.
