1. Four dead after consuming spurious liquor in Marakkanam

Four men, aged between 50 and 65, died and nearly 15 persons have been hospitalised after they allegedly consumed spurious liquor at Ekkiyarkuppam near Marakkanam in Villupuram district early this morning.

Police sources said a group of over 15 persons, mostly fishermen from the coastal hamlet of Ekkiyarkuppam, had purchased the brew from Amaran, 25 of Mariamman Kovil Street in Marakkanam. The villagers started falling ill after consuming the brew on the intervening night of Saturday and Sunday and were admitted to hospitals in neighbouring Puducherry and Villupuram.
