Sathishkumar, a resident of Vadavalli, claimed that he prepared a will for an aged man by name Narayanasamy Naidu, in 2009. The police said that on September 14, 2015, another advocate Madhavan published an advertisement in newspaper in connection with that property for which he had written the will.

The picture of a many by name Narayanasamy Naidu that was on the advertisement was not the person Sathiskumar had earlier met.
