DMK Organising Secretary R.S. Bharathi on Monday hit out at former minister and AIADMK leader D. Jayakumar for his statement that his arrest was meant as a warning by the DMK government to the others in the latter’s party.
Responding to Mr. Jayakumar’s interview to The Hindu on Monday, Mr. Bharathi said the leader was arrested for his actions on the day of the local bodies polls and not for his statements against DMK president and Chief Minister M.K. Stalin.
“It is highly condemnable that Mr. Jayakumar is claiming that his arrest was a warning to the AIADMK when his actions of taking the law into his own hands and treating a DMK cadre badly,” he said.
