What Did Treasurer Syed Kous Stated?

The News18 report states that Tamil Nadu Sunnat Jamath treasurer Syed Kous met the media to discuss the organisation’s complaint against Vijay. He reportedly said, “Muslims were insulted at the Iftar program organised by Vijay. We believe the participation of drunkards and rowdies who had nothing to do with fasting or Iftar has insulted Muslims.”

Syed also stated that the event was organised in a hurtful manner. He called out Vijay for not ‘expressing regret’ at how the Iftar turned out. He alleged that arrangements were not made correctly and that Vijay’s ‘foreign guards’ disrespected people, ‘treating them like cows. “Legal action should be taken against Vijay to ensure this does not happen again. We did not file a complaint for publicity,” he added.
