Police sources say that enmity within Pasupathy's family was also not ruled out as his own bodyguards were being grilled by the department.

Meanwhile, Tuticorin, which witnessed some violence on Wednesday during Pandian's funeral procession, slowly limped back to normalcy with bus services, which were stopped on Wednesday, resuming late on Thursday morning. Schools too functioned, but rumours of attacks on a school student had anxious parents rushing to the institutions to pick up their wards. Tuticorin SP Rajendran asked the public not to believe rumours and assured that the situation was under control.

However, angry traders who allegedly suffered a loss to the tune of about Rs 1.5 crore when miscreants attacked shops, vehicles and even a petrol bunk during the procession staged a demonstration near the bus stand protesting the attacks. According to U Natarajan, general secretary of Tuticorin City Traders' Association, they are proposing to shut down all shops in the city on Friday to register their protest.

Though the southern districts remained calm on Thursday, police pickets were placed in sensitive places like Paramakudi, Kadaladi, Kamudhi in Ramanathapuram among others. Patrolling was intensified in these places.
