Erode: Ten
years after the killing of sandalwood smuggler Veerappan posters have
appeared all over Erode district praising the bandit as a "hero who
protected the inter-state border".
Veerappan,
who reigned over the jungles of Tamil Nadu and Karnataka for over two
decades, was finally gunned down in an encounter by the Special Task
Force on October 18, 2004. On the eve of his 10th death anniversary, the
Naam Tamizhar Katchi has plastered the public walls across Erode
district with posters hailing Veerappan.
