SIT calls off search operation at Veeramani’s house

What's behind this

The Special Investigation Team (SIT) has ended its search at the house of 84‑year‑old granite baron Veeramani after digging up the garden at his bungalow on Avvai Shanmugam Salai with private contractors and finding no remains. Veeramani, already booked in a 2004 case of abetment to the suicide of a minor girl, faced fresh information suggesting a girl had been buried in his house, prompting the excavation. The absence of any remains led the SIT to call off the operation.
