Chennai, March 15: A 25-year-old man, who eloped with a politician's daughter in December last, was found dead on Sringeri Mutt Road, near Buckingham Canal, in Mandaveli on Wednesday night.

Police suspect that he was hacked to death somewhere else, and his body was transported in a vehicle and dropped on the road around 7.30pm on the dark stretch. The body of Bilal (25), of Pillayar Koil Thottam in Mandaveli, was found in a pool of blood near a broken wall along the canal. He had injuries on his head and neck.

Bilal had, in December, eloped with the daughter of Manivannan, a PMK councillor in Mylapore. He had met the girl on her way to college and fell in love with her.

Based on a complaint from Manivannan, police summoned Bilal's brother, Ahmed Basha, to the Mylapore police station. Even as they were questioning Basha, the councillor got into an argument with him, snatched a bayonet from a policeman and stabbed him in the stomach. Basha was admitted to a hospital, and Manivannan was arrested.

Police said things were quiet till Wednesday when Bilal's body was found. "We suspect it must have been dumped around 7.30pm. The road is empty most of the time and has poor lighting. The body was found opposite a corporation school. We suspect Bilal was murdered somewhere else and brought here," said a source.
