Petrol bombs hurled at Congress leader's house
Chennai, Nov 28 (PTI)

Unidentified persons hurled petrol bombs at the residence of senior Congress leader and former Union Minister EVKS Elangovan here, police said on Saturday.

Three petrol bombs were hurled at Elangovan's Adyar residence late last night. The attack came hours after Elangovan tore down some posters of slain LTTE leader V Prabhakaran at Erode yesterday.

Elangovan was not present in the house when the petrol bombs were hurled, police said, adding some furniture was damaged in the incident.

Elangovan, known for his hardline stand against LTTE for its involvement in the assassination of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi, had removed posters and banners eulogising the leader of the banned organisation, put up by pro-LTTE elements on the occasion of Prabhakaran's birthday.

Prabhakaran was killed in a Sri Lankan army offensive in May this year.

Mr.Elagovan knows about the Srilakan Govt attrocities against Tamils. He did nothing for Tamils in Srilanka.But there are millions of sympathisers all over Tamilnadu. Many tamils got married to Indian Tamils.If such is the case naturally all such Tamil UPA leaders will attract abuse from general public. They could not go to Srilanka to fight Singhala people, but can show their anger on Mr.Elangovan.

Check whether anybody from ruling govt is involved in that. Because whole of India watched CMs Interview with NDTV way back. Our beloved CM was mentioned that Prabhaker is his friend.........!!
