CBI Denies Clean Chit to Vijay in Karur Stampede Case; Interrogation Continues

  • Tamilaga Vetri Kazhagam (TVK) leader Vijay was interrogated by the CBI in Delhi regarding the Karur stampede case, which resulted in 41 deaths.
  • CBI sources indicate no clean chit has been issued, emphasizing the stampede was due to organizer failure or official negligence, not an act of God.
  • Vijay faced tough questions about his seven-hour delay at the Karur meeting, which local police allege contributed to the stampede.
  • TVK General Secretary CTR Nirmal Kumar denied allegations, stating Vijay attended as a witness and his name won't be in the charge sheet.
  • CBI officials maintain it's premature to determine roles, with a charge sheet expected soon under sections related to negligence and endangering public safety.

Why It Matters: CBI continues its probe into the Karur stampede, denying a clean chit to Vijay and questioning his role.
