Madurai:
A criminal petition has been filed inthe Madras High Court bench here by a Karur-based land owner,seeking to register a case against DMK functionary Chinnasamy,a former AIADMK minister, for allegedly threatening him tosell a property in 2007.
Petitioner Gnanasekaran alleged that though he had enteredinto an agreement with three persons for purchasing 7.8 acres,Chinnasamy and others, including his son, obtained a sale deedin favour of another person in 2008 after abducting thevendors.
He said on November 17, 2011, he lodged complaint beforethe SP, Karur. But police refused to initiate action againstthe accused. Hence, he filed the present petition.
The matter is likely to come up for hearing next week.
