Balabharathi, five others have been booked for verbal abuse against an advocate
Former Dindigul MLA and CPI (M) leader K. Balabharathi has moved the Madurai Bench of the Madras High Court seeking anticipatory bail. The former MLA and five others were booked after an advocate alleged that he was verbally abused by the members of All India Democratic Women’s Association (AIDWA), who were staging a demonstration in front of Dindigul district court complex on December 6.
The case of the prosecution was that the advocate, Devendran, accompanied his client to the court. At about 11 a.m. the AIDWA members AIDWA were staging a demonstration in front of the court. It is said that the advocate’s client questioned the demonstrators on the inaction on a grievance petition she submitted to the AIDWA.
