AIADMK general secretary Edappadi K. Palaniswami on Wednesday came down heavily on DMK president and Chief Minister M.K. Stalin for labelling his colleagues as guilty even before the cases against them were investigated.
Referring to Mr. Stalin’s letter to President Droupadi Murmu in this regard, Mr. Palaniswami wanted former Ministers of the ruling party to face their cases “honestly”, with non-political lawyers appointed to represent the prosecution.
In a statement, he questioned the logic behind having S. Regupathy as the Law Minister despite his having been named in corruption cases and V. Senthilbalaji as Minister without portfolio even after he was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate.
