        When Murugan, a painter, and his wife Valli left for work yesterday, their five sons were at home located at Kathirvedu Ambedkar Nagar. But the couple's 14-year-old Roja was found murdered with head injury at a drainage canal of a lake near Surapattu. The public immediately alerted the Puzhal police who rushed to the scene and took possession of the body for sending it to Stanley Hospital for post-mortem.

        Also, it is being reported that the girl had regular contacts with a youth in the locality.

        During an attempt by the youth to molest her when she was alone at the drainage channel, she might have been killled with a boulder.
