THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Advocate T P Sunderarajan, the 1964-batch IPS officer whose legal intervention led to stock-taking of Sree Padmanabha Swamy temple's colossal assets, died here on Sunday, spurring talks of "divine retribution" among the believers. Others said he was stressed on account of protesters brick-batting his house for his dragging the temple into the courtroom.
The 70-year-old passed away at about 12.45 am at his brother's residence around 30 metres from the shrine's west entrance. Afamily source said Sunderarajan, who was otherwise in good health, was uneasy and feverish for the last two days.
On Saturday evening, he complained of wheezing and said he would not last until Sunday morning. Family members chose to dismiss his apprehensions ( he had said similar things earlier as well). Sunderarajanhad also said that he wanted to die before sunrise as otherwise the sun would pass from 'Uttarayana' (north) to Dakshinayana (south). According to Hindu texts, 'Uttarayana' is an auspicious time to leave the body.
