Jayendrar is not being given proper medications: complaint to President

Publication: Dinamani (Tamil)
Date: December 6, 2004

For the past 3 days, Sri Jayendrar has not been given his medications. There are fears that he may be killed in Velur prison itself. Therefore, the President should intervene to protect his life requests Supreme Court Senior Advocate MN Krishnamani. In a telegram to the President.

He sent it on Sunday evening with the permission of the Sankara Matam. [Sri] Jayendrar is not being treated well in prison. He is not being given his medications properly. He has glaucoma and Diabetes. Dr. Badhrinath, an eminent ophthalmologist has prescribed him medications for glaucoma. Those medications are not being given.

His private physician, Dr. Ramachandran is not being allowed to take his Blood Pressure and Blood Sugar monitors to the prison. Dr. Ramachandran says Sri Jayendrar is very weak.

"Several devotees have conveyed to me on the telephone their fears that Sri Jayendrar may be given drugs or slow-acting poison, [says the Supreme Court Advocate]. SP Premkumar, who is investigating the case compelled Sri Jayendrar to drink milk he brought to him. It is feared he may have mixed drugs in it.

For the past two days, his lawyer Krishnaswamy has not been allowed to meet him.

For the past 25 years, Sri Jayendrar is a diabetic. As such, if he is given sedatives or denied medications, he is likely to go into a coma.

[It is feared that] Since they don't have evidence to finish this case, there is a concerted effort to cause his health to deteriorate. Ultimately, this may be falsely presented as if he committed suicide.

Prem Kumar is a dangerous man. He has been convicted in two cases before this. In a previous case, the High Court said he tortured a person in his custody to give false evidence. It is notable that the Madras High Court has ordered an investigation into this matter.

The President should intervene immediately to ensure Sri Jayendrar's safety."

the man who was murdered was a brahmin and an ex-devotee of kanchimutt. Naturally the police would have suspicion on Jayendrar because SR had sent several letters to J threatening to expose him. These are all facts which are accepted by all. If you say DMK wanted to take revenge or Jayalalitha had ulterior motives in ordering the arrest, that argument has no basis. Why did they wait to do all this for so long? Under the circumstances Jayendrar and Vijayendrar should step down as Mataadhipathis as a true religious head should be above suspicion. Otherwise, what is the sanctity for a mutt?
