The Chennai Police have released a picture of a man after a 24-year-old Infosys employee was on Friday found murdered at a city railway station.

Swathi S was found dead with injuries to her face and neck around 6.30 am on a platform in Nungambakkam railway station in Chennai, police said.

The incident is believed to have taken place when Swathi, a resident of Choolaimedu near the station, was waiting to board a train to reach her office as per her routine. It caused a flutter in the neighbourhood and the station, which usually gets busy around 7 am.

The body has been retrieved and sent for postmortem, police said, adding various angles were being probed to locate the assailant and to ascertain the motive behind the killing.

We are saddened by the unfortunate incident that has led to the demise of our employee in Chennai. We are working with the local authorities as they investigate the matter and will continue to provide our co-operation and support. Our deepest sympathies and prayers are with the family of the deceased. Infosys will provide all the necessary support to the family in their hour of grief.
