The Madurai Bench of the Madras High Court on Thursday directed the family members of Muthu Mano, a remand prisoner who was killed inside Palayamkottai Central Prison, to receive the body and perform the last rites by May 1.
Justice G. Ilangovan passed the order after a mention was made by the State. The State submitted that the family members refused to receive the body of the deceased on the ground that their petition was pending before the court.
They were insisting that the government should provide compensation and a job to a family member, it was submitted. A proposal was sent to the State recommending a government job to a family member and appropriate compensation.
