All our leaders who supported DMK in the last election have now been arrested under 'UAPA' by the same Udhayanidhi whom we had supported. When we tried to expose them, Tamil Nadu media outlets blocked us. So, we came to your state, but you also disappointed us."The mail also claimed that the alleged devices were intended only for property damage and urged that the building be evacuated. (ANI)
