TN ADGP Arrested in Kidnapping Case, Supreme Court to Hear Plea
A high-ranking police officer, ADGP Jayaram, has been arrested in Tamil Nadu due to a kidnapping case.
The kidnapping involves a teenage boy and is connected to a marriage that some family members opposed.
A local politician, MLA Jagan Moorthy, is also part of the case.
The Supreme Court is now involved, as the officer has filed a plea against his arrest.
The High Court ordered his arrest, partly based on statements from other people involved in the case.
The situation arose from an incident where a boy was abducted, and the officer's car was reportedly used in connection to the case.
ADGP H M Jayaram was arrested by order of the Madras High Court in a kidnapping case.
The case stems from a family's disapproval of an inter-caste love marriage.
MLA Poovai Jagan Moorthy is also implicated in the case, but has not been granted anticipatory bail.
The ADGP's official car was allegedly used to drop the kidnapped boy.
The Supreme Court will hear Jayaram's plea against the arrest order on June 18.
