On Tuesday morning residents of Pollachi town who go to the railway station for their regular morning walk saw the body near the station’s platform and informed the police.
The police have identified the deceased as P. Malathi (42), a resident of Ramnagar in Dindigul. Camera recordings showed the woman getting down from an autorickshaw near the two-wheeler parking stand along with two men, around 1.30 a.m. on Tuesday.
