A DMK office bearer near Eriyodu in Dindigul district has been accused of sexually harassing a woman demanding that she pays back the loan taken by her husband who is now dead.
It is being said that the woman’s husband Sakthivel had taken a loan of ₹80,000 from Pazhanisamy for agricultural purposes at an usurious rate of interest.
After Sakthivel died two years ago, Pazhanisamy has been constantly harassing the former’s wife through phone and in person asking for to repay the money. He had also allegedly made derogatory remarks and sexually abused her demanding that she pay back the loan or face the consequences.
The DMK office bearer had reportedly kept harassing the woman despite she already paying back more than twice the principal amount.
A complaint has been lodged with the police.
