A 70-year-old tribesman died when his house collapsed in heavy rain at Vengakkadavu in Sholayur panchayat in Attappady on Saturday.
Sugunan alias Perumal, 70, was found dead under the debris of his collapsed house on Saturday evening.
The tile-roof house in a lonely locale was presumed to have collapsed in the early hours of Saturday. Sugunan was living alone there, which did not have easy access. His relatives were living at a place less than a kilometer away.
