Cartoonist Bala has done it yet again. Just a day after an FIR was registered against him, he has hit back with his latest cartoon about his arrest and the killing of Ragu.An unsafe wooden structure installed for MGR centenary celebrations claimed the life of 31-year-old engineer from the US, Ragu, on the streets of Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu. After the news of his death broke, the words ‘Who Killed Ragu?’ were seen painted on the road at the spot of the accident.

On Tuesday, the Chennai police filed the second FIR against Bala and two other journalists for staging a protest against the cartoonist’s earlier arrest.Bala was earlier arrested in the first week of November after a defamatory case was registered against him on account of a caricature that allegedly depicted Chief Minister Edappadi Palanisamy in a distasteful manner.

The caricature was published following an incident where a couple and their two children immolated themselves at the collectorate, alleging police inaction on a usury complaint.
