A case has been registered against Dr Subbiah Shanmugam, national president of the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP), on Saturday. The Adambakkam police registered a case against the doctor after his 62-year old neighbour lodged a complaint accusing him of harrassing her including urinating and throwing used surgical masks at her doorstep.
She also submitted CCTV footage and photos which showed a man clad in a blue shirt, supposedly Dr Subbiah, urinating at her doorstep. It all started when the woman had rented out her parking space for Rs 1,500 to the doctor. "Since January, the doctor had not paid the money which led to a fight between the duo," said a police source.
In the complaint, the women mentioned that he had thrown used surgical masks, garbage and muck after which she installed a CCTV camera at her doorstep on July 5. On July 10, at 9.11 pm, the camera recorded the man urinating in front of the house.
