Vijay Faces Second CBI Questioning in Karur Stampede Probe

Investigators are rechecking event timelines to establish responsibility for the Karur disaster.

Overview

  • Vijay arrived in Delhi on Sunday and reached the CBI headquarters on Monday morning for a follow-up session in the Karur case.
  • The fresh questioning focuses on the reported seven-hour delay in his arrival, the sequence of events, and consistency with statements by TVK functionaries and his driver.
  • Probes include permissions for the rally, crowd-control measures, entry and exit routes, water and security arrangements, coordination with local police, and the movement of his modified campaign vehicle.
  • His first appearance on January 12 lasted more than six hours and involved a 90-question written questionnaire administered by a Deputy Superintendent-level officer.
  • The CBI-led investigation, transferred by a Supreme Court order and overseen by a committee headed by Justice Ajay Rastogi, continues as cases against several TVK leaders include culpable homicide not amounting to murder.
