"I fear that they are behind this attack. My life is in danger. If anything wrong happens to me, they should be held responsible," Raja claimed. Notably, Vincent Raja was removed from the post of a primary membership of the party a few days ago following the release of a leaked audio clip of him talking to Sasikala on a phone call.
