A 28-year-old man from Krishnagiri allegedly attempted suicide after hearing rumours about actor-turned-politician Vijay’s prospects in the ongoing Assembly elections, police said.
The man, identified as K Mahendran, is believed to be a supporter of Vijay’s Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK). The incident took place shortly before the counting of votes began, a TOI report stated.
According to police officials, Mahendran was reportedly under severe emotional distress and slit his throat near his residence. Local residents who noticed the incident rushed to his aid and immediately took him to the Krishnagiri Government Medical College and Hospital.
He is currently undergoing intensive treatment, officials confirmed. Police said further details are being looked into.
