Naam Tamilar Party Leader Hacked To Death In Madurai Days After Tamil Nadu BSP Chief’s Murder

A senior Naam Tamilar Party (NTK) leader Balasubramanian was hacked to death in Tamil Nadu’s Madurai on Tuesday. The north district deputy secretary was reportedly attacked while he was out for a morning walk in the BB Kulam area.

Confirming the incident, the Madurai City Police Commissioner said Balasubramanian was hacked to death this morning when he was walking in BB Kulam.

Police have, however, denied political angles and said it was a revenge attack.

The incident comes around 10 days after Tamil Nadu Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) President Armstrong was allegedly hacked to death by six unidentified people in Chennai’s Perambur area.

The two-wheeler-borne gang attacked Armstrong, a former councillor of Chennai Corporation, near his house in Perambur inflicting grievous injuries on him, and fled.

Party chief condoles death

The party’s chief coordinator Seeman condemned the killing and urged the police to arrest the culprits immediately.

“We will launch a protest if those responsible for the death of Balasubramanian are not arrested immediately,” Seeman said in a post on X tagging Chief Minister MK Stalin.

“I was shocked to hear the news that brother Balasubramanian, who was the deputy secretary of Madurai North district Naam Tamilar Katchi, was hacked to death. I strongly condemn the perpetrators of this heartless atrocity,” he said.

Expressing anguish over the demise of Balasubramanian, Seeman extended his heartfelt condolences and sympathies to the bereaved family and friends.
