Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) Karur West district secretary Mathiyazhagan has been arrested in connection with a deadly stampede at actor-politician Vijay’s rally in Karur, Tamil Nadu. The stampede struck when over 25,000 people gathered—more than twice the expected crowd. In the chaos, 41 people died, including 10 children and 18 women. He is charged with murder, culpable homicide and endangering public safety. The FIR also names Vijay and other senior TVK leaders, alleging delays, violations and negligence.
