Thoothukudi (Tamil Nadu): A man along with his pregnant wife were hacked to death by an unidentified group of people over their inter-caste marriage in Tamil Nadu. Twenty-four-year-old Solairajan and his three-month pregnant wife Jyothi, 21 were hacked to death on Thursday in Thoothukudi.

The incident came to light when the couple were not seen and the door to their house remained closed. The neighbours then, accompanied by Solairajan's mother, forcefully opened the door.
