The civil suit has been filed against Tada Periyasami, Advocate Rathinam and S Murugesan’s father Samikannu. On Friday, the Madras High Court retrained BJP functionary Tada Periyasami and the other two from making and circulating defamatory statements against the VCK chief.
Justice Abdul Quddhose also passed the interim injunction by the MP that seeks nominal damages of ₹1 Crore from the above mentioned, for spoiling his reputation and showing him in negative light. Senior Counsel E Omprakash also shared that Tada Periyasami who was originally a part of VCK, joined BJP and started vilifying Thirumavalavan by making defamatory comments against him. Similarly, activist-advocate Rathinam also made defamatory comments against the MP, the court was told.
