அதிகாலை 2 மணிக்கு கதவை தட்டி, பிறகு கதவை உடைக்க முறப்படும் சிலர். கேட்டால் cyber crime.
ஆனால் தான் காமிக்கும் Id card ஐ உள்ளூர் மக்கள் ஃபோட்டோ எடுப்பது குற்றம் என சொல்லி மிரட்டல் .
Protocal படி Local போலீஸும் உடன் இல்லை.

Reacting to the arrest, Karur MP Jothimani mentioned that Praveen Raj was arrested for enhancing and publishing “obscene videos” of Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi.
She wrote on X (previously Twitter), “The Karur District Congress Committee has apprehended the BJP’s IT Wing member for modifying and uploading inappropriate videos of Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi. While it is reasonable to criticise someone based on political principles, expressing hatred towards a sibling only because of their political involvement is unacceptable. The Tamil community should be ashamed of the BJP’s exploitative and hateful policies. It was Priyanka Gandhi today, but it could be any woman in our homes tomorrow. This problem needs to be addressed. The Congress party does not approve of obscene and hateful criticism of its leaders. In the future, the BJP should abandon such vulgar and hateful political practices and reflect on their actions.”
