Kamal Haasan joins campaign demanding release of Rajiv Gandhi assassination convicts

Makkal Needhi Maiam (MNM) chief Kamal Haasan has extended his support to the ongoing Twitter campaign launched in support of the release of the Rajiv Gandhi assassination convicts. The actor-politician took to social media to support the release of AG Perarivalan, who was taken into custody 30 years ago in the Rajiv Gandhi assassination case and was later convicted. Several political parties in the state, including DMK and AIADMK, have been in favour of the release of the seven convicts on a humanitarian basis.
