Jayakumar (45), a farmer from Sepukalnathan village, was attacked by his brother after a dispute with his brother Ramachandran over the ownership of four acres land. He was injured in the incident and hospitalised two days ago.
Though Jayakumar filed a police complaint, Amrithaselvi alleged, police did not take action against Ramachandran. This lead to the suicide attempt outside the police station.
Police saved the trio before they could light themselves on fire.
