Family members of a man who died in custody attempt to stop Chief Minister Vijay’s convoy outside the Secretariat, according to reports from multiple outlets. They try to block vehicles along the route, drawing a police response.
India Today and The Hindu both say the family members are detained during the incident. The accounts focus on the confrontation outside the Secretariat and the detention of the parents or kin as authorities manage the situation. While both outlets emphasize the same core event—an effort to halt the convoy in connection with the custodial death case and subsequent detention—the reports mainly differ in how they describe the individuals involved (parents versus broader “kin”) rather than the overall sequence of events.
The outlets do not provide, within the cited text, further details on the custodial death itself or any official statements made by the state. The incident remains framed as a protest linked to seeking attention or justice for the custodial death victim.
