A press scrum outside a gated building with a green wall, where saffron-robed men with rudraksha malas face a cluster of microphones held by reporters. A man with long swept-back hair and a red-and-saffron cloth around his neck, wearing a gold chain, speaks at centre. Beside him an older man with a shaved head, white forehead markings and saffron robe listens. Uniformed police officers and onlookers stand behind the metal gate. Microphone flags read Vasanth, GTV, SPV, Win TV and Puthiya Thalaimurai. A sign reads Thanks for not ... and a tilted white poster in Tamil hangs at the top.
