The complaint was given on Sept 27. Therefore, we can wait for a month, the judge said. “We don’t want to restrain them from talking about it. They allege that so and so has covered up the Pocso case. If that is true, they should not be any cover up. As per rules, only after four weeks of the representation can one approach the court.
All that we want to say is, if there is cover up, give the evidence to the police,” senior advocate J Ravindran said, representing Baalu on Wednesday.

Chennai: Madras high court on Wednesday refused immediate relief to DMK MP T R Baalu, who moved the court for a direction to SIT probing the child rape cases against granite baron R Veeramani, to question chief minister C Joseph Vijay and ministers Aadhav Arjuna and C T R Nirmal Kumar over their allegations against DMK in the case.
