From Good Man to Bad Man; Who is 'Pura' Karthik?
Home > News Shots > Tamil Nadu newsChennai Sankar Nagar police officers arrested 'Pura' Karthik who involved in Chain snatching and extortion from a number of ladies in Chennai. Unlike a usual chain snatcher's story, Pura Karthik's story has a different angle. Though 'Good' and 'Bad' are mere judgments, the following is just the derivation of 'Pura' Karthik's life story that had socially acceptable behavior (Good) and not acceptable behavior (Bad)
Good 'Pura' Karthik
Pura Karthik studied only 9th grade and he developed a deep affection on Pigeons ('Pura') and dogs. Later in his life, he bought a lot of pigeons and dogs as his pets. According to the reports, Pura Karthik has a good caring heart towards living beings including humans.
Bad 'Pura' Karthik
Pura Karthik was married twice but he was living only with his second wife in Erode along with his 7-year-old baby. Pura Karthik joined Dada Balaji from Kaaka Thoppu Chennai and learned Chain Snatching and extortion. In his confession to the police, Karthik says, " I will not torture or harm ladies. I will talk to them for hours and make sure that they feel comfortable. Only then I will rob their chains and other valuables".
Karthik also confessed that he increased the volume of his business (Chain Snatching and extortion) after realizing that he had to take care of his loving pets with more food. After getting arrested, 'Pura' Karthik requested police officers that he was ready to go jail but he wanted to settle something for his pets for the one last time.
Police nabbed 'Pura' Karthik by analyzing 175 cameras around Chennai city and deceiving him over phone that a new dog has arrived in the market.
