An anonymous letter warning the assassination of AIADMK chief J Jayalalithaa with explosive devices was received at her Poes Garden residence on Monday.
The content of the letter goes like this. “You have done great injustice to the people of Tamil Nadu by instigating rowdy advocates of the Madras High Court against the police and the government. We have therefore decided to eliminate you from this world through high explosive bombs. These bombs shall be fixed outside your house and shall explode the moment your convoy leaves the gate.” “Similarly, through decoys in the police department, we shall fit one such device in your convoy and you will die a cruel death like Rajiv Gandhi.”
The reason for the assassination plot, according to the letter, was because Jayalalithaa is alleged to have created a wedge between India and Sri Lanka and also between the police and the advocates.
Based on the complaint by Jaya’s office assistant, the Teynampet police have filed a case and initiated investigations.
