The Central Bureau of Investigation has issued another summons to TVK chief Vijay in the ongoing Karur stampede case. Officials confirmed that Vijay must appear before the agency on January 19 for further questioning.
Previous Questioning Session
Vijay faced extensive questioning at the CBI headquarters on Monday. The session lasted for more than six hours as investigators probed his role in the tragic stampede incident.
Request for New Date
The CBI initially asked Vijay to return on Tuesday for additional questioning. However, the actor-politician requested a different date, citing the Pongal festival celebrations. Officials accommodated this request and scheduled the next appearance for January 19.
Ongoing Investigation
The Karur stampede case continues to unfold with the CBI pursuing multiple lines of inquiry. The agency is examining the circumstances that led to the deadly incident and determining responsibility.
Vijay's political party, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), remains under scrutiny as the investigation progresses. The CBI's repeated summons indicate the seriousness with which they are pursuing this case.
Officials emphasized that the investigation follows standard procedures and that all relevant parties will be questioned thoroughly. The January 19 appearance represents another step in the comprehensive probe into the stampede that shocked Tamil Nadu.
