A gruesome discovery in Chowannur has led to the arrest of Sunny, a 61-year-old with a criminal history, after a half-charred body was found in a rented room. This incident has sent ripples of shock throughout the local community.

During the investigation, it was revealed that Sunny, a past convict in murder cases from 2003 and 2005, lured the victim to his room under the pretense of consuming alcohol. A dispute allegedly erupted over unnatural sex, leading to violence. Sunny, reportedly in a panicked state, tried to destroy evidence by setting the room ablaze.

Authorities are in the process of identifying the deceased, estimated to be thirty-five years old. CCTV footage of the incident has been widely circulated to aid in the probe. This arrest underscores the necessity for vigilance in monitoring repeat offenders, as Sunny was recently employed as a security guard.
