Mr. Babu ordered the detention under the Goondas Act due to their repeated involvement in criminal activities, the statement said.
On January 20, the Tiruppur South police arrested seven men, including the three, and Selvi (47), who was the district’s deputy secretary of AIADMK women’s wing, in connection with the attempt to abduct A.
