Former Madurai Corporation Deputy Mayor, P.M. Mannan, who is now in the AIADMK, has been picked up by Central Crime Branch of Madurai City Police on Friday (November 6, 2026) for inquiry in a case pertaining to an allegation of “horse trading” made by ruling TVK MLA V.M.S. Mustafa.

The MLA, representing Madurai Central Assembly constituency, had lodged a complaint with Madurai City Police claiming an attempt was made to bribe him to vote against the TVK-led government in a no-confidence motion, according to police sources.

Based on his complaint, the CCB had registered a case against Mr. Mannan under the provisions of Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988 (Amendment of 2018) and for criminal conspiracy under Section 61 (2) of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.

Mr. Mannan was picked up by the police from his residence at Arappalayam in the early hours of Friday and was whisked away to CCB office where he was being enquired.

“As of now, he is only being interrogated in the case,” a top police officer said.

Mr. Mannan was the Deputy Mayor of Madurai between 2006 and 2011 as a DMK candidate and was a staunch loyalist of former Union Minister, M.K. Alagiri, till the 2026 Assembly election, when he switched to the AIADMK.

Mr. Mustafa had recently claimed he was offered ₹30 crore to vote against the TVK Government.

கழக கொள்கைப் பரப்புத் துணைச் செயலாளரும், மதுரை முன்னாள் துணை மேயருமான திரு. P.M. மன்னன் அவர்களை பொய் வழக்கில் கைது செய்துள்ள தவெக அரசின் ஏவல்துறைக்கு எனது கடும் கண்டனம்.

குதிரை பேரம் நடத்தி, எங்கள் கூட்டணியில் உள்ள அமமுக சட்டமன்ற உறுப்பினரை கடத்தி கையெழுத்து வாங்கி ஆட்சிக்கு வருவதற்கு முன்பே அத்தனை தில்லுமுல்லு வேலைகளையும் செய்த கட்சி தான் தவெக.

ஆட்சி அதிகாரத்தை கையில் வைத்துக்கொண்டு, அஇஅதிமுக சட்டமன்ற உறுப்பினர்களுக்கு வலைவீசி, “தலைமைச் செயலகமா? பனையூரின் கிளை அலுவலகமா?” என்று மக்களே அருவருக்கும் வகையில், “கீழ்மாடியில் ராஜினாமா; மேல்மாடியில் இணைப்பு விழா” என்று நாடு காணாத கேவலத்தை அரங்கேறிய ஒரே கட்சி தவெக தான்.

இந்த உண்மைகள் குறித்தெல்லாம் பேச வக்கில்லாத இந்த அரசு, மதுரை மத்திய தொகுதி சட்டமன்ற உறுப்பினர் முஸ்தபா மூலம் ஒரு கட்டுக்கதையை புனைந்து, கழக நிர்வாகி திரு. மன்னன் அவர்களை கைது செய்து புதிய நாடகத்தை நடத்துவது வெட்கக்கேடானது.

முதல்வரை அணுக முடியாமல், பல Powercenter-களுக்கு நடுவே சிக்கிக்கொண்டு, தவெக ஆட்சி மீது ஆளுங்கட்சி MLA-க்கள் பலரே அதிருப்தியில் இருப்பதாக செய்திகள் வந்துகொண்டு இருக்கின்றன. சொந்த கட்சி MLA-க்களை சமாதானப் படுத்த வழி தெரியாமல், இப்படி ஒரு கதையை இந்த அரசு புனைந்து இருக்கிறதோ? என்ற சந்தேகம் வலுவாக எழுகிறது.

பாதிக்கப்பட்டவன் மீதே பழியை சுமத்தி குற்றவாளி பட்டம் கட்டும் பழைய தமிழ் சினிமா பார்முலா-வை அஇஅதிமுக மீது திணிக்கப் பார்க்கும் இந்த சினிமா ரீல்ஸ் அரசுக்கு, அதே கதையின் இறுதியில் எல்லா சாயமும் வெளுத்துப் போய் நிற்கப்போவது தாங்கள்தான் என்பது நினைவில் இருக்கட்டும்!

உடனடியாக திரு. மன்னன் அவர்களை விடுதலை செய்யவேண்டும் எனவும், இதுபோன்ற தரம்தாழ்ந்த அரசியல் சித்து விளையாட்டுகளை இத்தோடு நிறுத்திக் கொள்ள வேண்டும் எனவும் இந்த பொய்க்கால் குதிரை அரசை வலியுறுத்துகிறேன்.

After a day-long interrogation, the CCB formally arrested Mr. Mannan and produced him before the Special Court for trial of cases under Prevention of Corruption Act in the evening. The Judge refused to award judicial remand for him and let him off on personal bail. However, the court directed him to appear before the Investigating Officer, CCB, at 10 a.m. on Saturday.
