A late-night visit from law enforcement personnel has left actor Balaji Murugadoss questioning the circumstances surrounding a search at his residence. While cooperating with the authorities, the actor has raised concerns about the lack of clarity regarding the reason for the visit and the identity of the person who allegedly filed the complaint. The incident has also prompted him to seek the intervention of Tamil Nadu Chief Minister C Joseph Vijay.
Taking to social media on Monday, the Bigg Boss Tamil 4 fame actor shared a video of the incident and questioned the manner in which the search was conducted. He also challenged the authorities to subject him to a blood test, insisting that he had nothing to hide.
In his post on X, Balaji wrote, "15 police from Narcotics came to my house last night!" (sic). He further alleged that the personnel did not produce a formal search warrant when they arrived. Explaining why he nevertheless allowed them inside, the actor said he chose to cooperate because he had nothing to conceal.
Tagging Chief Minister Vijay, Balaji questioned why the personnel had not disclosed the details of the complaint despite being asked repeatedly. "I just want to know who gave the complaint and for what! I asked them n number of times they didn't disclose. I'm up for a blood test. But shame on ur police department (sic)!" he wrote.
As per his social media post, 15 personnel from the Anti-Narcotics Task Force (ANTF) visited the actor's residence following the Diwali celebrations. The actor's allegations regarding the absence of a search warrant and the lack of information about the complaint are yet to be addressed through an official response from the police department. As of the time of writing, neither the department nor the Chief Minister had publicly responded to his post.
Balaji Murugadoss first gained prominence through his participation in Bigg Boss Tamil 4, hosted by Kamal Haasan, where he emerged as the first runner-up. He subsequently returned to the reality television format with Bigg Boss Ultimate, winning its inaugural season. He is currently a contestant on Sony Vizha's Celebrity MasterChef Tamil.
