Pattali Makkal Katchi (PMK) president Anbumani Ramadoss has strongly criticized the ruling DMK government for allegedly filing a false complaint against Ashok Srinidhi, a former executive of PMK, who exposed a major fraud worth over ₹2,000 crore committed by the company My V3 Ads across Tamil Nadu.

In a statement on his official X account, Anbumani Ramadoss condemned the Coimbatore Police for registering a case against Srinidhi, who had raised concerns about the fraudulent activities of My V3 Ads. Ramadoss questioned whether the Dravidian model government’s policy was to protect fraudsters and intimidate those who expose fraudsters. He stated, “It is condemnable that the Coimbatore Police have filed a case against Ashok Srinidhi, former district secretary of Patali Makkal Katchi, for exposing the fraud of over ₹2000 crore by My V3 Ads from people across Tamil Nadu. The government should explain whether this is the policy of the Dravidian model to file false cases against those who expose fraudsters while failing to arrest those who embezzle public money?”

“Ashok Srinidhi, who served as the district secretary of the Patali Makkal Katchi, has raised his voice against various injustices. He held several protests to expose the fraud committed by a Coimbatore-based company called My V3 Ads, which had collected more than ₹2000 crore from the public. As a result, a case has been registered against Shakthi Anandan and others of My V3 Ads, but has not been arrested yet. While Ashok Srinidhi who had been insisting on his arrest, a case has been registered against him for allegedly preventing a female assistant inspector of the Cyber ​​Crime Unit from working. This is a blatant false case, there is no doubt about that.” He added

Ramadoss further pointed out the harassment and threats Srinidhi faced from My V3 Ads, including death threats to him and his family, and even disrespectful remarks about his mother. Ramadoss criticized the authorities for failing to act against those who threatened Srinidhi and attempted to kill him but instead choosing to file a false case against him. He stated, “Since the day Ashok Srinidhi started his fight against My V3 Ads, the company has been pressuring him in various ways. One of such threats was a person who spoke on YouTube not only threatened to kill Ashok Srinidhi and his family, but also disrespected his mother and others. He has filed a complaint in this regard at the Coimbatore Cyber ​​Crime Police Station. However, after several weeks, no action has been taken against him, and he went to the police station only after being called for an investigation. There, he asked why no action has been taken on his complaint. A case has been registered for this, saying that he prevented a female assistant inspector of the Cyber ​​Crime Police Station from working. After exposing the fraud of My V3 Ads, Ashok received continuous threats. At one point, there were attempts to kill him in broad daylight. But the police did not even take action against those who tried to kill him. On the contrary, if the police are filing a false case against him who is fighting for the welfare of the people, then the Tamil Nadu government and the police should explain whose interests the police are protecting?”

“No action has been taken against the owner of the fraudulent My V3 Ads company; no action has been taken against those who tried to assassinate Ashok Srinidhi; no action has been taken against those who threatened to kill Ashok Srinidhi and his family and defamed the women in his family. But a false case has been registered against Ashok Srinidhi for questioning it. The rulers should explain to the people of Tamil Nadu that, is it the policy of the Dravidian model government to protect those who have committed fraud and to register false cases against those who speak out for the people? It is unacceptable to use the police, or one of its officers, as a tool to protect a fraudulent company. It is painful that the situation of the Tamil Nadu Police has deteriorated to this extent. Protecting a fraudulent company by the government, which is supposed to protect the people, is a grave crime. The police should immediately stop aiding criminals. The Coimbatore Police should immediately withdraw the case against Ashok Srinidhi and arrest all those involved based on the complaint filed by him.”, Dr. Anbumani Ramadoss said.
