The two prime suspects in the murder of Tamil Nadu sub-inspector Wilson were arrested by the Q branch of the Tamil Nadu police, Manorama has reported.

The prime suspects have been identified as 29-year-old Abdu Shameen and 27-year-old Taufeeq. The duo have been accused of stabbing and shooting Wilson when he was on duty at the Kaliyakkavilai checkpost near the Tamil Nadu-Kerala border. The incident happened at around 9.30 PM on 8 January. The 58-year-old Wilson was all set to retire a few months later.


It is believed that Shameen and Taufeeq have links to a terror outfit. Taufeeq is an accused in the murder case of a BJP leader in Kanyakumari and Shameen is said to be an accused in a communal murder case in 2014.
