Will expose mystery behind Jaya’s death if voted to power, says Stalin
CHENNAI: DMK president MK Stalin on Sunday alleged that neither Chief Minister Edappadi K Palaniswami nor his deputy O Panneerselvam were ready to expose the mystery behind former chief minister J Jayalalithaa’s death.
Referring to the reported letter judge Arumugasamy, who heads the commission of inquiry probing Jayalalithaa’s death, had written accusing the state advocate general of not showing interest in vacating the stay on the commission’s probe, Stalin said the sitting AIADMK Ministers or O Pannerselvam who became chief minister after Jayalalithaa’s death or incumbent Chief Minister Palaniswami have frozen the commission of inquiry for power and they were not ready to expose the mystery behind Jayalalithaa’s death.
Detailing the dramatic political changes in the AIADMK since Jayalalithaa’s death to the recent announcement of EPS as the chief ministerial candidate of the ruling alliance, the DMK president said, “Investigation of the death mystery will pan out into a long episode that could drag Poes Garden, Apollo hospital, Fort St George and even Raj Bhavan into it. People are aware that the EPS regime was hesitant on the issue only because of that.”
Power-obsessed EPS and OPS had constituted the commission of inquiry for the sake of it and they are playing a political game to cover up the mysteries behind their leader’s death during the last three years, remarked Stalin.
Stalin added that O Panneeselvam who became deputy CM by launching the first edition of Dharma Yudham has now given up on the second attempt and acquiesced CM candidature to EPS

by allying with the party after he was reminded of the summon of the Arumugasamy commission of inquiry and a few other reasons.
Stalin also reiterated that a probe would be conducted into the mystery behind Jayalalithaa’s death and those responsible for it would be brought to books after the DMK forms government next year.
