The deceased has been identified as Ashraf Mohammad (18) from Anna Nagar near Kulithalai in Tiruchi, a first year civil engineering student at Hindustan Institute of Technology at Othakalamandapam.

Based on a complainant lodged by S. Koushik, a first year student and friend of Mohammed, police arrested three first year students -- A. Dinakaran (19) from Palaya Vilangudi in Madurai, Nithish Kumar (19) from Thalakuntha in the Nilgiris and R. Saravanakumar (19) from Thirupuvanam in Sivaganga.

The incident happened near the college hostel mess for first year students around 10 a.m. The police said that a series of incidents led to the murder, which started with Koushik's friend Rija Thowfic asking for Dinakaran’s photo from a student named Vetri.

Dinakaran came to know about it from Vetri and picked up a quarrel with Koushik, Thowfic, and his friends, including Ashraf Mohammed.

During the clash, Dinakaran allegedly stabbed Mohammad in the chest. Mohammed was admitted to a private hospital, but died in the evening.

Tengnoupal, Jan 21: A woman IPS officer has alleged that a rifleman of Assam Rifles physically assaulted and molested her at a check post near Moreh town in Manipur's Tengnoupal district, police said on Tuesday.

Based on a written complaint of the IPS officer, an FIR has been registered against rifleman P K Pandey and a summon has been issued to him to appear before the concerned police station, the police said.

Manipur DGP L M Khaute told reporters on Monday, "We have made contacts with the Assam Rifles authorities. A complaint has been lodged by the officer." In her complaint, the IPS officer said that on reaching Khudengtabi check post on Sunday afternoon one of her escorts, who was not in uniform, told the frisking party of Assam Rifles to register their entry.

Despite showing their identity cards, the rifleman allegedly detained them, she said.

"We offered to search ourselves and the vehicle, but he was not interested", she said.

The rifleman began hitting the official vehicle and "misbehaved, humiliated, harassed and assaulted me and my escort personnel," she alleged.

The IPS officer also alleged that the rifleman molested her and when her escorts tried to intervene, he thrashed them.

She further accused the rifleman of making "sexually coloured" remarks against her, using abusive language and even tried to snatch her phone when she tried to call her senior officers.

The issue was brought under control after the matter was reported to the Brigadier of 26th Assam Rifles and the Major of the D-company of 12th AR, police said.
