Скачать или смотреть Caste, ‘Honour’, and Murder: The Story of Kavin Selvaganesh from Tamil Nadu

27-year-old Kavin, a young Dalit engineer from Thoothukudi, Tamil Nadu, was brutally hacked to death in front of his mother on July 27, 2025. His crime? Falling in love with a woman from a dominant caste.

This is not an isolated murder — it’s part of a disturbing trend of caste-based ‘honour’ killings in Tamil Nadu. With police complicity, public silence, and glorification of the killers, justice feels like a distant dream.

In this story, TNM’s Azeefa Fathima talks about what happened to Kavin, why his family refused to accept his body, and how caste pride continues to cost young lives in Tamil Nadu.

⚠️ Trigger warning: This video contains sensitive themes of caste violence and murder.
