Political leader Vijay has accused the DMK of hiding a POCSO Act case involving Veeramani and has criticized the AIADMK for remaining silent.
Political activist Vijay has publicly accused the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) of covering up a POCSO Act case that involves a person named Veeramani. The allegation was made during a press conference where Vijay demanded transparency from the ruling party.
Vijay claims that the DMK has deliberately withheld evidence and has not taken any steps to investigate the alleged abuse. He further stated that the party’s silence could undermine public confidence in the legal process.
In addition to criticizing the DMK, Vijay questioned the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) for its lack of response. He urged the opposition party to address the issue publicly and to support the victim’s pursuit of justice.
The accusations come amid growing scrutiny of political parties’ handling of sexual abuse cases in Tamil Nadu. Vijay’s statements have sparked debate among lawmakers and civil society groups about accountability and the role of political parties in safeguarding victims’ rights.
