CHENNAI: A history sheeter was brutally murdered by an armed gang while travelling on a two-wheeler with a friend near Dindigul bus stand on Saturday night. The deceased victim was identified as Mohammed Irfan. He was beheaded and the assailants fled the scene immediately.

According to Thanthi TV, Irfan who hailed from Begampur in Dindigul, was out with his friend Mohammad Abdullah when the incident happened.

Irfan was a history sheeter and he was one of the accused in the murder of ‘Pattarai’ Saravanan. The murder happened a year ago at Annanagar in Dindigul, and this appears to be a revenge killing.
