The Delhi Police has booked Dinakaran for allegedly attempting to bribe Election Commission officials through a middleman Sukesh Chandrasekar to get a favourable verdict in the party's two leaves symbol case.
The poll body has frozen the AIADMK's two leaves symbol with two factions — one led by party General Secretary VK Sasikala and the other by former Chief Minister O Panneerselvam — claiming it as their own.
