Police have, however, denied political angles and said it was a revenge attack.
The incident comes around 10 days after Tamil Nadu Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) President Armstrong was allegedly hacked to death by six unidentified people in Chennai’s Perambur area.
The two-wheeler-borne gang attacked Armstrong, a former councillor of Chennai Corporation, near his house in Perambur inflicting grievous injuries on him, and fled.
