A case has been filed against the former DMK panchayat board chairman, who broke into the house of the AIADMK panchayat board chairman in Poonamallee.
Mohan, who resides in Meppur near Poonamallee in Chennai, is the AIADMK panchayat board chairman of his area. Ilaiya, a DMK cadre who contested unsuccessfully against Mohan, has been involved in frequent disputes with Mohan after his defeat.
In this scenario, Kuppusamy, a resident of Ilaya’s house, reportedly injured Mohan by mistake while playing cricket on the road. When Mohan asked Ilaya’s tenant Kuppusamy not to play in the road, Ilaya, who had been waiting for a chance to pick a conflict with Mohan, started arguing with him.
Ilaya and his friends allegedly broke into Mohan’s house, assaulting him and his belongings. Mohan, after suffering serious injuries to his chest, was taken to a private hospital for treatment. After receiving the complaint, Nasaratpet police filed a case against Mohan under five sections of IPC.
After returning from the hospital, Mohan blamed the police for not arresting Ilaya and his friends. He further stated that Ilaya and his associates have created an unsafe environment in his area for people and that if the police do not take action against them, he will organize a protest.
