Union Industries Minister Murasoli Maran, who was injured in a scuffle with the police during the arrest of DMK President M Karunanidhi on Friday midnight, has been admitted in the Intensive care unit of the Apollo Hospital in Madras.

Doctors attending on him said his condition was stable.

Maran, nephew of Karunanidhi, sustained injuries in the scuffle at the latter's residence where he was called by Karunanidhi around 0130 hours (IST) on Saturday morning when the police reached there.

When Karunanidhi was taken in a car by the police, Maran got into the car, but police bodily lifted him out.

Maran followed Karunanidhi, when he was taken to the headquarters of the Crime Branch of the state police, where he was again physically removed by the police.

He was also prevented from entering Vepery police station, where Karunanidhi was kept for some time

From the police station, Maran, who had suffered serious cardiac problems a few months ago, was taken to Apollo Hospital by his family members for a check up.
