Chennai, April 8 (SocialNews.XYZ) The flying squad of the Election Commission (EC) seized Rs 7.5 lakh from the residence of a relative of DMK’s Vellore Lok Sabha candidate, Kathir Anand, late on Sunday night.
The flying squad seized the money from the residence of Natarajan, a relative of DMK state General Secretary and Tamil Nadu Water Resources Minister, S Duraimurugan.
According to sources in the EC flying squad, the money was found from the terrace of Natarajan’s house.
