The railway police have released two separate CCTV footages taken a few meters from the crime scene that show a man in a checked shirt and black pants walking towards the station at precisely 6.32 am. The second footage shows the same man rushing out about 11 minutes later.
Swathi, employed with IT major Infosys, was allegedly hacked to death by an unidentified man on the platform in Nugambakkam Railway Station, here on June 24. She was waiting to board a train on her way to office around 6.30 AM when she was murdered.
Swathi’s family, after watching the footage, said that they do not recognise the person in the video, with the deceased's uncle adding that she was not involved in any love affair.
Railway station sources have said that the accused might have been a stalker.
