Vijay demands Stalin speak out over Veeramani sex abuse case

Actor-turned-politician Vijay launched a sharp attack on the ruling DMK at a large public gathering, demanding Chief Minister M K Stalin break his silence over the Veeramani sex abuse case. Addressing a substantial crowd at a reception held in the constituency, Vijay alleged that a complaint had been filed during the previous DMK administration but that the entire matter had been suppressed and its history deliberately concealed.

Vijay accused the DMK of resorting to abusive language out of desperation, framing the party's response as an admission of weakness ahead of the upcoming bypoll. His remarks drew a pointed rebuke in return, with the Chief Minister warning Vijay that he would regret targeting the DMK.

The exchange marks a significant escalation in tensions between Vijay's political outfit and the ruling party, with the sex abuse case now firmly at the centre of the pre-election contest in the constituency.
