EC bribery case: An evasive TTV Dinakaran stares at arrest
Delhi police sources say that they have ample information about the money trail.
T T V Dinakaran accused in the Election Commission bribery case was evasive during the questioning by the Delhi police. Sources tell OneIndia that his answers were not satisfactory and he was evasive most of the time.
Dinakaran who is Sasikala Natarajan's nephew was questioned at Delhi for two days. The police put before him an audio clip in which he is allegedly heard speaking about a bribe to be given to EC officials to bag the AIADMK's two leaves symbol. Dinakaran, however, denied that he had any conversation.
It may be recalled that the police had arrested Sukesh Chandrashekar from Delhi. He is said to be the person who agreed to strike a deal of Rs 50 crore with the EC officials to get the AIADMK symbol. A petition claiming the symbol is pending before the ECI. After claims were made by the Paneerselvam and Palanisamy camps, the ECI decided to freeze the symbol.
Delhi police sources say that they have ample information about the money trail. We asked him if he had got in touch with any EC officials to which the answer was in the negative. He also denied having any association with Sukesh, the officer also informed.
The Delhi police say that they have a strong case on hand. "We will bring him face to face with Sukesh. We have enough evidence to implicate him," the officer informed. When asked if Dinakaran would be arrested, the officer said that they have not taken a call on that as yet. "If he refuses to cooperate then an arrest would not be ruled out," the officer said.
