New Delhi: AIADMK (Amma) leader TTV Dinakaran was on Sunday grilled by the police for 11 hours over his alleged attempt to bribe an Election Commission official for retaining the 'two leaves' party symbol and the related money trail.
Yesterday, he was quizzed for close to seven hours. In a gruelling session, the police on Sunday confronted Dinakaran, the nephew of jailed AIADMK chief Sasikala, with the evidence.
The leader had come under scanner after the arrest of alleged middleman Sukesh Chandrasekar. Dinakaran, however, has maintained that he does not know Sukesh and has never met him.
The controversial AIADMK leader had earlier been summoned by Delhi Police at his Chennai residence in the case.
A powerful section of the ruling AIADMK (Amma) recently revolted against the Sasikala-Dinakaran leadership.
The development came after Panneerselvam, who is leading the rival faction, demanded ouster of Sasikala and Dinakaran as a condition for the merger.
