Tamil Nadu government denies arrest claim by Jayalalitha

By IANS,

Chennai : The Tamil Nadu government Monday denied the claims of opposition leader J. Jayalalitha of her impending arrest by the state police.

“The allegation is a figment of her imagination and not based on any fact,” Director General of Police K.P. Jain said in a press release here.

Jayalalitha, AIADMK chief, said in a statement Sunday evening that she has been informed by top police officials that Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi has ordered her arrest “under any pretext” following her demand for dismissal of the DMK regime for its “anti-national acts”.
