CBI visits TVK headquarters in Chennai 'Karur stampede Case'

CBI officers visited the TVK party office in suburban Panaiyur here on Monday and sought details on the tragic stampede in Karur on September 27 that left 41 dead. 

Confirming that the officials visited the party office, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) joint general secretary C T R Nirmal Kumar said the premier investigating agency sought "general details like CCTV footages" of the Karur



stampede.

"They came to seek the details and not for interrogation. They issued the summons in person, asking to provide the details. 

We agreed to submit all the particulars through our representative in three or four days," Kumar told reporters. The TVK had already submitted all those details to the SIT that was initially constituted to probe the stampede, he added.
