KPK Jeyakumar Death:  A Tamil Nadu Congress leader, KPK Jeyakumar, was found dead on Saturday at a farmland he owned, two days after he was reported missing, according to the police. His badly burnt body was found under mysterious circumstances in Tirunelveli, prompting the police to form three special teams to investigate the death.

Jeyakumar was the president of the Tirunelveli East district unit of the Congress. According to the Tirunelveli police, he went missing on Thursday and his son filed a missing report the next day at the local police station.

Police have also found a note believed to be Jeyakumar's dying declaration, although they are currently investigating whether it was written by him or not. Suspense also remained on the fact of whether he was murdered or was a suicide.

The district's Superintendent of Police said that three special teams have been set up to probe the case from all angles.
