The attack on two youngsters by a former DMK councillor following a heated argument sparked outrage in the area.
Sachinraj and his coworker Vignesh, both from Korukkupet, Chennai, and working in a cell phone service company, went to a house in the Madhavaram Ponni Amman Medu area to service cell phones.
Thirunavukarasu, a former DMK councillor who was present at the occasion, has spoken poorly of Sachin Raja. When Sachin Raja questioned why the former councillor was using abusive language, the former councillor became furious and called rowdies from his area, who assaulted both Sachin and Vignesh after tying them in a poll.
Sachin’s eye and face were wounded, while Vignesh’s neck was injured, and both were rushed to a private hospital. Sachin Raj filed a complaint with the Madhavaram police station, and inspector Kaliraj of the Madhavaram police said he will take appropriate action.
