Chennai: Opposition DMK president M K Stalin on Wednesday said all those involved in the sensational Pollachi sexual assault and blackmailing case, should be arrested.
In a statement here, he referred to the arrest of ruling AIADMK functionary K Arulanandham and two others Babu and Heron Balu by the CBI in the case and said they should not be granted bail immediately as many others, who were said to be involved in the case, were yet to be nabbed.
The CBI should expedite the investigation in the case and all those, including those having links with the top AIADMK leaders, should be arrested.
The CBI should ensure that not even a single person involved in the case should go scot free and punish them to ensure the safety fo women in the State.
Stalin also reiterated that right from the beginning the DMK, various women’s organisations and human rights groups have been alleging that AIADMKmen were involved in the case.
He further alleged that Arulanandham was the shadow of AIADMK Pollachi Town Secretary Krishnakumar and was wellknown to Tamilnadu Assembly Deputy Speaker Pollachi V Jayaraman. “Further investigation will bring out more truth,” Stalin said.
“The cries of the girl, who was beaten by the tormentors had rendered our hearts. It shook the entire state,” he recalled.
