Chithra, a well-known figure in Tamil television, tragically passed away under unclear circumstances in a hotel near Chennai in 2020, prompting widespread media attention and public outcry. Following her untimely death, a case was registered against seven individuals, including Hemnath, who were arrested and faced serious allegations.

As the case progressed in the Thiruvallur District Women’s Court, a recent ruling determined that Hemnath would be released, which has stirred controversy. In light of this development, Chithra’s father, Kamaraj, has taken decisive action by appealing to the Chennai High Court. His petition argues that the inquiry court failed to investigate the testimonies of government witnesses adequately.

Kamaraj is urging the court to reconsider Hemnath's release, emphasizing the need to thoroughly examine all evidence in the case. This latest chapter in the ongoing saga is sure to attract further scrutiny, as the Chennai High Court prepares to hear the appeal in the coming days. The case has sparked a broader conversation about justice and accountability in high-profile incidents.
