After 31 years he is realesed declaring innocent.lost his youth; lost the time; lost his working days. What a justice.

[sanjeevchauhan]

The headline is misleading. They were in jail for 31 years and completed thier jail term. It's not walk free situation.

[lucascruze]

Such humanity doesn't happen to people who are not criminals they are still in jail settling uapa
One old guy died like that bullocks

[denthen]

A couple of batteries made him a convict at the age of 19, even after the court found he had no knowledge of the assassination locked up for 31 years. To all those who cry on his release 31 years damn it from 19 to 50 years he has lost everything in this life there nothing much left.

[endisnear]

Damn, I think he will prefer going back to jail after seeing india's current economic situation

[rahulvaiju]

Being in jail for 30 years he missed a lot of things like demonization, covid 19 etc and now looking at the inflation and fuel rates he might be planning to assassinate Modi 🤣😂

[manjunatha]

Shame.a killer speaking like a hero as if he had done some great service for the country.he will join that same DMK later.

[perpendicular]

When police arrest him :-

Grandfather - police done great work.
After 31 years
Grandson - finally a innocent got justice

[HHH]

This is our judiciary system of world's largest democracy! 👏

[MrItsme]

Title is wrong, he didnt walk free. He already completed his sentence and was waiting for release

[KaranS]

Being in jail for 30 years he missed a lot of things like demonization, covid 19 etc and now looking at the inflation and fuel rates he might be planning to assassinate Modi 🤣😂
xD

[ramidubai]

All this celebration was unwarranted as he is not any freedom fighter for India ! May be trying to be a candidate..

[jagadeshgupta]

Title shows perarivalan was an convict who escapes using full of law holes, but Wikipedia and case history shows different, 31 years of jail life, but saying he sent freely. 🤷

[subhasishraha]

Govt has the audacity to inform that they have falsely accused an innocent man and destroyed his and his family's lives for 31 years... That's largest democracy for you !!!
Hopefully the govt should at least take care of him and his future generations...

[JuniorGongo]

His people and family should file case against.. govt for... Keeping him in jail... For so long without any mistake

[--..--.-.]

Win? Are you joking? 31 years, you lost miserably

[chiranjitsaha]

Where we are standing?? An innocent person lost his 31years of his life...
Is this a justice??

[nathankulandaivel]

Delayed justice is equivalent to denied justice. Degree of or type of crime shouldn't be accounted for remission. people should not celebrate this event instead feel ashame for not able to do anything for 10yrs when a co-human being is tortured by ruthless Indian bureaucracy for buying battery which involved in murder.

[aniketchowdhary]

Kuddos to the supreme court on its supreme decision

[MM-dhwr]

bASED ON guna HE IS A brahmin. mANUNEETHI SAYS NO CRIME COMMITTED.
