  "summary": "The Greater Chennai Police have recovered a third video allegedly showing Gem Granites owner R. Veeramani sexually abusing a minor, bringing the total number of such videos to three. The video, believed to have been recorded a few years ago, was recovered from a storage device seized from a close associate of Veeramani. Police sources stated that Shanthi, Veeramani's associate, is suspected to have recorded the video and subsequently deleted it. The victim has yet to be identified, but the total number of victims has risen to 13. Alongside Veeramani, six other accused persons have been arrested, and the Directorate of Enforcement (ED) and Income Tax Department have been alerted about suspicious financial transactions. The businessman and his associates face seven cases under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act and a case related to the abetment of the suicide of a minor in 2004.",
