Former AIADMK minister MR Vijayabhaskar was arrested by CB-CID officials in Kerala’s Thrissur on Tuesday, in connection with a Rs 100-crore land-grabbing case in Karur. Accompanied by another accused, Praveen, Vijayabhaskar was swiftly transported to Karur the same day for interrogation at the local CB-CID office.
The arrest follows a complaint filed by the Mela Karur sub-registrar (in-charge) on June 9, 2024, alleging fraudulent registration of 22 acres of land valued at Rs 100 crore in Vangal. Vijayabhaskar had previously sought anticipatory bail, which was denied by the district principal sessions court on June 25 after fears of inclusion in the case prompted him to file on June 12.
The CB-CID took over the investigation on June 14, following a complaint by the land parcel's owner against Vijayabhaskar and associates for allegedly threatening his family and fraudulently transferring the land to four individuals. The Vangal police subsequently registered a case on June 22, involving 13 individuals, including Vijayabhaskar and his brother Sekar.
