Sources said that Dinakaran’s last phone conversation with Sukesh was 20 hours before his arrest on April 16. Sukesh had reportedly introduced himself to Dinakaran as a HC judge and offered to help him win the party symbol.
Dinakaran, who was appointed as deputy general secretary by Sasikala, has been isolated in his party amid moves to merge rival factions led by Tamil Nadu Chief Minister EK Palaniswami and his predecessor O Panneerselvam.
A powerful section of the ruling AIADMK (Amma) recently revolted against the Sasikala-Dhinakaran leadership.
