Originally stationed at the Kangeyam all-women police station, Jayamani was on temporary duty at Perumanallur, during the visit of deputy chief minister M. K. Stalin. Jaishankar kidnapped her, and raped her several times before killing her. The police recovered Jayamani's body a month later, on 19 September. The Tiruppur police launched a manhunt for Jaishankar, and arrested him on 19 October 2009. He was jailed at the Coimbatore Central Prison. By this time, he had been charged with 13 separate counts of rape and murder in Tiruppur, Salem and Dharmapuri. He revealed, while remanded in custody, that he enjoyed torturing women before he raped and killed them. Shankar had earned notoriety as a psychopathic serial killer, convicted or facing trial for the rape and murder of 20 women on highways around Tamil Nadu and Karnataka between 2008 and 2012 while working as a truck driver. On 17 March 2011, the police took Jaishankar to a fast-track court in Dharmapuri, for a murder case trial. The next day, armed reserve police constables M. Chinnasamy and Rajavelu were assigned to escort him back to Coimbatore. On the way, Jaishankar managed to escape at the Salem bus stand, around 9:30 p.m. On 19 March, Chinnasamy shot himself. In 2011, Shankar escaped from police while he was being taken from the Coimbatore prison to a court in Dharmapuri. He dodged two constables who were escorting him at the Salem bus stand. One of the police constables committed suicide soon after. Following this escape from Tamil Nadu, Shankar is alleged to have carried out a series of murders in Karnataka, especially in Chitradurga-Bellary region. He was arrested again on May 5, 2011, after he attempted to attack a woman working in a field in the Elagi village in the Chitradurga area. The woman raised an alarm, bringing her husband and other workers to her rescue. They caught Shankar while he was trying to flee on a motorcycle. They handed him over to Chitradurga police. Shankar was shifted to Bengaluru central prison on March 14, 2012. In late August 2013, he feigned illness and got himself admitted to the prison hospital. On the intervening night of August 31 and September 1, he fled scaling the 30-foot perimeter wall. The rope he was using to descend the wall reportedly gave way, resulting in the fall that injured his spine. psycho shankar: 30 rapes, 15 murders, 2 escapes, 'Psycho Serial killer M Jaishankar committed suicide at Bengaluru  M Jaishankar Who Was Accused Of Raping 30 Murderpedia
