Krishnagiri, India – January 5, 2026 – Three individuals have been arrested in Kaveripattinam following the assault of a 70-year-old woman, Unnamalai, stemming from a protracted land dispute. The incident, which occurred on Sunday, January 4th, came to light after a video of the assault circulated widely on social media, prompting swift police action.

Unnamalai, a resident of Attupalan Kottai, was allegedly attacked by Kumar, 53, his wife Kalpana, 45, and relative Prabhakaran, after she objected to them clearing and ploughing a disputed parcel of land. The land has been the subject of a long-running dispute between Unnamalai’s family and the family of her late husband’s brother, Balakrishnan.

According to reports, Unnamalai was home alone when Kumar, Kalpana, and others began unilaterally working on the land, which is currently under litigation. When she objected, the suspects allegedly grabbed her, tied her to a tree, and assaulted her. A relative who attempted to intervene was also reportedly assaulted.

Police initiated an investigation after Unnamalai and her family filed a complaint based on the video evidence. Kumar, Kalpana, and Prabhakaran were subsequently arrested. The investigation is ongoing.
