BJP Tamil Nadu former president K. Annamalai, on Tuesday (June 3, 2025) alleged several questions remain unanswered in the Anna University sexual assault case and accused the DMK government of attempting to 'shield' certain individuals.
In a video posted on his X handle, Mr. Annamalai raised several questions to the State government and claimed the convict Gnanasekar spoke to a police officer and a DMK functionary after committing the crime, last year. He claimed to have accessed the Call Detail Records (CDR) of the accused and the DMK functionary.
Further, he warned that he would reveal the identity of the police officers, whom the accused and the DMK functionary had allegedly contacted, if the State government failed to respond to his questions within 48 hours.
He made these allegations a day after the Mahila Court in Chennai sentenced the accused to undergo life imprisonment for a minimum period of 30 years without remission.

‘No place for anti-people ideology': Samajwadi Party expels MLAs who cross-voted in Rajya Sabha polls; rebels had backed BJP candidate
LUCKNOW: Samajwadi Party on Monday expelled three MLAs who cast their votes in support of the BJP candidate in the Rajya Sabha elections. The party removed Abhay Singh from Gosaiganj, Rakesh Pratap Singh from Gauriganj, and Manoj Pandey from Unchahar constituencies for their actions against party principles and supporting policies deemed detrimental to various sections of society. "Samajwadi Party in public interest expels the following MLAs from the party due to their communal divisive negativity and supporting anti-farmer, women, youth, business, working professionals and 'anti-PDA' ideology, as opposed to the politics of socialist harmonious positive ideology: 1. MLA Gosaiganj Mr. Abhay Singh 2. MLA Gauriganj Mr. Rakesh Pratap Singh 3. MLA Unchahar Mr. Manoj Kumar Pandey The grace period given to these people for change of heart has now been completed, the remaining time period is remaining due to good conduct. In future also there will be no place in the party for 'anti-people' people and activities contrary to the basic ideology of the party will always be considered unforgivable. Wherever you live, be trustworthy," Samajwadi Party said in an official statement on X. Party sources indicate potential expulsion actions against additional rebel MLAs in the future. According to Samajwadi Party sources, seven MLAs, including Chief Whip Manoj Pandey, disrupted party unity by backing the BJP's candidate during the Rajya Sabha elections. This action has caused significant displeasure to party president Akhilesh Yadav . Post the Lok Sabha elections conclusion last year, Yadav began proceedings to terminate the membership of these seven MLAs. Following the Samajwadi Party's success in securing 37 seats in Uttar Pradesh during the Lok Sabha elections, seven MLAs sought meetings with SP leader Akhilesh Yadav to discuss party re-entry. However, Akhilesh Yadav refused to entertain their requests for meetings or readmission.
