Actor and Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) leader Thalapathy Vijay has arrived in Delhi to undergo a second round of questioning by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) regarding the tragic Karur stampede that claimed 41 lives. As a witness, Vijay is being asked to revisit his previous statements to make clear details related to crowd management failures and event-related decisions.
Vijay Thalapathy Arrives For Second CBI Interrogation In Karur Stampede
This renewed summons indicates that investigators are in search of further clarity following his initial extensive questioning. This emphasises the case’s significance as probably the most high-profile investigations involving a public figure in recent times. Vijay was first questioned for over six hours on the CBI headquarters on January 12.
Although he was initially asked to look the very next day, he requested a postponement, citing Pongal celebrations. He’s now scheduled to look before investigators around 11 am. As reported by Times Now, sources from the TVK stated that Vijay is anticipated to return to Chennai late Monday. This will probably be unless the authorities determine to increase the questioning.
Recent reports reveal that the CBI is planning to re-examine several elements of Vijay’s earlier statements. This also includes questioning those made by other TVK members and Vijay’s driver. The investigation is reportedly observing a pattern and similarities in these responses. This may occasionally be a spotlight of this second round.
What Happened At The Karur Stampede?
During his previous interrogation, Vijay reportedly told investigators that serious lapses in crowd management by local police contributed to the deadly stampede on September 27. He explained that bottlenecks near the venue weren’t cleared in time. This caused congestion and restricted movement as the group surged. Vijay also justified leaving the scene after the incident, stating it was to stop the situation from worsening further.
Because the investigation intensifies, this second round of questioning is seen as an important step in reconstructing the sequence of events and determining accountability. The aim stays to make sure justice for the victims.
