Following an input, Superintendent of Police R. Krishnaraj ordered vehicle check across the district on Monday. When a police team was checking the vehicles near Tenkasi Old Bus-Stand, they intercepted a car with two persons, George Michael, 46, of Kulasekaram in Kanniyakumari district, and his associate Mohan, 52, of Thaazhaiyooththu on Tirunelveli outskirts.
