24/09/2019, STAFF REPORTER,MADURAI

Madurai Bench of the Madras High Court on Monday allowed the father of a law course aspirant, involved in Tirumangalam toll plaza shooting incident, to attend counselling for admission to a law college in the State, on his son’s behalf.

Justice M. Sundar allowed S. Ganesan, father of G. Karthikeyan, involved in the shooting incident, to attend the counselling. Karthikeyan is currently lodged in Madurai Central Prison.

The petitioner said that his son returned to India after quitting his job in Saudi Arabia. He applied for the course in Tamil Nadu Dr. Ambedkar Law University.

He developed friendship with Sasikumar, an associate of Dhanasekaran. The trio, with other associates, were travelling to Madurai when the incident took place. Following a wordy duel with toll plaza staff, Sasikumar is said to have fired two rounds in the air.

A case was registered against the accused. Meanwhile, the counselling date was announced. With his son not being in a situation to attend the counselling, the petitioner sought a direction to permit him to attend the counselling on his son’s behalf.
