Mumbai, Apr 26 (Deccan Chronicle): Finally, after four days of intense questioning, AIADMK (Amma) leader T T V Dhinakaran was arrested late in the evening by Delhi Police for bribing an Election Commission official for retaining the 'two leaves' party symbol.

Along with Dinakaran, his friend Mallikarjuna has also been arrested. The arrest of Dhinakaran is a major setback for Sasikala family.

Earlier today, a special court today grilled Delhi Police asking it why no action has been taken against AIADMK faction leader T T V Dhinakaran when all allegations in the Election Commission bribery case were "against him".

"What is the position of the main accused... What action has been taken against Dhinakaran. Why are you not taking action against him? The whole allegations are against him. Show me the call details where it shows Sukesh Chandrashekar (arrested accused) talked to Dhinakaran," Special Judge Poonam Chaudhry asked the police.

The case pertains to an alleged attempt to bribe an Election Commission (EC) official by AIADMK (Amma) leader Dhinakaran to try to get the party's poll symbol of 'two leaves' for a by-election to the R K Nagar Assembly seat in Tamil Nadu. The polling was later cancelled by the EC.

    At last both Sasikala and Dhinakaran are in different prisons incommunicado. Now the politicians in AIADMK of EPS and OPS groups can negotiate peacefully, patch up, and either pack up during elections or survive. Victory for the law of the land.
