People going to a Murugan Temple in Kanchipuram were surprised to see a foreign youth asking for alms with a cap in his hands.
Kanchipuram police, on hearing the news, took him to the police station and inquired about him. His name was Eviktini and was from Russia. All his papers, passport, visa, etc., were in order. As his ATM card was locked out he could not withdraw cash and hence he resorted to begging in from of the Temple.
He has been sent to the Russian Consulate in Chennai and arrangements are being made to send him back to Russia.
