DMK's internal war: Another Alagiri aide detained

MK Alagiri
Madurai, Aug 6: Pressure has been increased on DMK supremo M Karunanidhi's son and union minister, MK Alagiri. Another close aide of Alagiri, VK Gurusamy on Friday, Aug 5 was detained under the Goondas Act.

Gurusamy, who was already lodged in jail over an alleged land grabbing case, is accused of giving murder threat to another DMK cadre, namely Stalin (not Karunanidhi's another son MK Stalin).

Police also bruised Gurusamy with an assaulting case during 2009 Lok Sabha election. Two more Alagiri aides have already been sent to jail under the same Goondas Act.

Meanwhile, Tiruvarur District DMK Secretary Poondi Kalaivanan has also been detained under Goondas Act. It seems that DMK's internal war provides Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Jayalalithaa the reason to smile.
