Two TVK functionaries sent to 14-day judicial custody in Karur stampede case
Two office bearers of the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) were on Tuesday sentenced to 14 days’ judicial custody in connection with the stampede during a party rally that tragically resulted in 41 deaths and injured nearly 60 people on September 27, police said.
The two accused are Karur West District Secretary V P Mathiyalagan and Karur Central District Secretary Kasi Pounraj. Both were named in the First Information Report (FIR) and have been remanded to judicial custody.
In addition, TVK state general secretary Bussy Anand and deputy general secretary Nirmal Kumar have also been named in the FIR but are yet to be arrested, according to police sources.
The accused have been booked under various sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, including:
– Section 105: Culpable homicide not amounting to murder
– Section 110: Attempt to commit culpable homicide
– Section 125: Endangering life of others
– Section 223: Disobedience to order
In response to the incident, the Tamil Nadu government has constituted a one-member commission headed by retired judge Aruna Jagadeesan to probe the alleged stampede that occurred during the TVK chief’s rally in Karur on September 27.
