Listen "Books & Authors podcast with V Sudarshan, author, Tuticorin; Adventures in Tamil Nadu's Crime Capital"
Episode Synopsis
"The stories in the book are propelled by the character of retired DGP Anoop Jaiswal. They tell you how difficult it is to work within a system and what police jobs really are like. They straddle a grey area and you begin to wonder who the criminals are and who are the good people. Really, when you go a little deeper, a criminal no longer appears to be a criminal; he becomes a human being at some point." - V Sudarshan, author, 'Tuticorin; Adventures in Tamil Nadu's Crime Capital'. He talks to Manjula Narayan about the book based on the officer's recollection of his time policing a poverty-stricken district prone to caste conflict and high levels of often bizarre violence.
