Alavandar murder case
Alavandar murder case is a murder trial which was conducted in the Madras State in the early 1950s. The cause of the trial was the murder of a businessman and ex-serviceman named Alavandar whose headless body was found in one of the coaches of the Indo-Ceylon Express. After a trial which became a ''cause-celebre'', Alavandar's ex-lover and her husband were found guilty of the murder and sentenced to brief terms of imprisonment.
==Introduction==
C. Alavandar, a pen salesman from Chennai was reported missing on August 28, 1952 by his employer Cunnan Chetty (the owner of Gem and Co). The next day a headless body was discovered in a third class compartment of the Chennai-Dhanushkodi (Indo-Ceylon boatmail) express. It was found after passengers complained about a foul smelling trunk when the train was nearing Manamadurai. Police investigating the complaint, opened the trunk and found the headless body. An autopsy done at Manamadurai concluded that the body belonged to a 25-year-old male. Since it was circumcised, the investigating police decided that the murder victim was a Muslim.
After a few days, police discovered a severed head in Royapuram beach, Chennai. It had been buried in the beach sand, but was exposed due to tidal action. The head and body were sent to Madras Medical College for forensic examination. Dr. C. P. Gopalakrishnan who performed the examination concluded that both belonged to the same 42-year-old male. Alavandar's wife later identified them as her husband's. Alavandar had served in the British Indian army and his fingerprints were on file there. They were used to conclusively prove that the murdered man was Alavandar.
