Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma are in the news for the wrong reason whereas the hashtag ‘#ArrestKohli’ has been trending on social media since morning. It happened in Tamil Nadu as a 21-year-old boy was arrested on Thursday. Police said he had allegedly killed his friend after being drunk over an argument, about who is a better cricketer – Rohit Sharma or Virat Kohli. The incident involves cricket fan S Dharmaraj, accused of killing 24-year-old P Vignesh, and both are from Poyyur village in Ariyalur district as well.

“During the course of their debate, Vignesh had allegedly mocked RCB and Virat Kohli. Vignesh had the habit of body shaming Dharmaraj, who was a stammerer. On that day he had made some remarks comparing the RCB team to the speaking difficulty of Dharmaraj. This infuriated Dharmaraj who attacked Vignesh with a bottle and later hit him with a cricket bat on the head. Dharmaraj soon fled the spot,” officials again said.

Police later shared that Vignesh and Dharmaraj were discussing cricket in an open area near SIDCO Industrial Estate, near Mallur, on Tuesday night, when the latter suddenly attacked the former with a bottle and cricket bat. Police also said that Vignesh, who had completed ITI, was waiting for his job visa to fly to Singapore and Dharmaraj was later remanded in judicial custody as well. The workers who were on their way to the SIDCO factory noticed Vignesh’s body the following day and alerted the local police as well.
