Tamil Nadu Stampede – Actor Vijay alleges ‘conspiracy’, to move Madras HC seeking CBI probe News24 –

TVK Party Chief Thalapathy Vijay on Sunday alleged a DMK Conspiracy and said that it will move to the Madras High Court seeking an investigation into the Karur Stampede that killed 39 people and left over 51 injured. Arivazhagan, the state coordinator of the party’s legal wing, told NDTV that the party has approached the court to form a Special Investigation Team or transfer the probe to CBI.

The Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam alleged that the stampede occurred due to a ‘conspiracy’ and was not accidental. Arivazhagan said they will bring up the matter before the Madurai bench tomorrow, September 29. “There was a conspiracy, a criminal conspiracy in the incident at Karur, so we requested the honorable high court to investigate the matter independently, not by a state agency. The court has to constitute a special investigation team, or they have to transfer the case from Tamil Nadu police to CBI,” NDTV quoted him as saying.
