New Delhi, Apr 22 (IBNS): AIDMK leader TTV Dinakaran has been interrogated by the Delhi Police over his alleged involvement in bribing an Election Commission official to get the "two leaves" symbol for his party faction, following the summons received couple of days back, media reports on Saturday.

On Wednesday, Dinakaran received a summon issued by the Delhi police over his alleged involvement in the bribery case.

Dinakaran was handed over a questionnaire and asked questions by the ACP regarding his connection with the case, media reports said.

The AIDMK leader was accused to bribe an Election Commission official to get the 'two leaves' symbol for their factions after the party's disintegration into two groups, following former CM of Tamil Nadu J Jayalalitha's death.

He received the summons after the arrest of a middleman named Sukesh Chandrasekhar, who is also involved in the bribery case.
