Chennai: Stepping up its attack on V K Sasikala, the AIADMK faction led by O Panneerselvam today demanded that her portraits be removed from the party headquarters here.

"The portraits of Sasikala should be immediately removed from the party headquarters to uphold its sanctity," said E Madusudanan, the 'Presidium Chairman' of the faction in a statement.

The senior leader's demand came a day after his camp sought removal of Sasikala, her nephew and deputy T T V Dhinakaran and their family members from the AIADMK prior to merger talks with the other faction led by Chief Minister K Palaniswami.

The Panneerselvam camp had on Monday once again raised its demand for a CBI probe into the death of former Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa.
