Meanwhile tension spread as news of the Dalit leader's death spread. Police all over the state have been alerted to look out for the gang and police personnel have been deployed at all sensitive areas in the southern districts to prevent any untoward incidents, they said. Pandian's wife Jesintha was killed in a bomb attack about two years back in Tuticorin district.
