Toxic Madan vs TN Police...The search intensifies to arrest the controversial YouTuber!

Youtuber Madan- one of the names that recently came to the spotlight in Tamil Nadu, not for any humanitarian acts but for trading humanity for making money through Youtube. Madan is a popular PUBG player and he has earned notorious attention through his filthy language against women. When the state has been witnessing a pile of sexual harassment allegations, a case against the Youtuber was filed with the state police. 

 Madan's Youtube channel 'Toxic Madan' has over 777k subscribers and the channel featured the videos of Madan playing PUBG while giving demeaning, degrading, and offensive commentary on women and sex in the backdrop. He would play the game and degrade women as if he degrades a gaming character. With such commentaries, he posted the videos which on one hand increased subscribers, and on the other hand, it increased the fact that he is really toxic.

Based on the complaints, the Tamil Nadu police had begun the search to arrest Madan but soon after knowing that he is under watch, he has absconded and has been at large. The revelation has immensely disturbed the communities over his awful fashion of making money and what more shocking is that his wife is part of this money-making drive. 

According to reports, the state police have intensified the manhunt and on Wednesday, the Central Crime Branch Tamil Nadu had formed a special team to search and apprehend Madan. The police had then arrested Madan's wife 25-year-old Kruthika. The officials have seized a laptop, a tablet, and a phone that the notorious couple based in Salem used to record their videos. 

The police say that Kruthika had supported and ran the objectionable channel with Madan. The female voice in obscene audio chats found in many of his videos belonged to Kruthika. Madan's wife was arrested on Wednesday and taken into judicial custody to investigate her husband's whereabouts. The police further say that the couple had decided to start a Youtube channel to make easy money.

With the view of garnering attention and gain thousands of subscribers in a short time, the couple had traded humanity and chose to use obscene and abusive content for their videos. Despite playing the game that was banned by India, Madan went on to body shame the women and assassinate their characters and his act was supported by his wife. When these incidents came to light, the state has completely surprised at how he earned lakhs of subscribers by purposefully degrading women. 

Some of his comments were in a fashion that they can't be tolerated and according to police, Kruthika had confessed that she and Madan had started the channel and earned more money and subscribers. It has been reported that the couple had earned Rs 10 lakh per month from Youtube. While intensifying the manhunt to nab Madan, the police are also investigating how he had earned luxury cars and a bungalow. 

The police had also detained Madan's brother and father for investigation and after learning that Madan's friend is helping him from Bangalore, a special team had rushed to the Karnataka capital to nab the friend of the Youtuber. The reports say that around 160 complaints were filed against the channel through online and based on such complaints, the cybercrime wing had lodged an FIR against Madan and his wife under five sections of IPC. 

Besides police, the Tamil Nadu State Commission for Protection of Child Rights has also received complaints against the Youtube channel and several complaints of financial fraud had also filed against the couple. As the sequel of a pile of cases, the police had deployed teams to trace and arrest Madan. While Madan's wife Kruthika was sent to judicial custody till June 30, the police department has been delving into the bank accounts and investments made by the couple.

Addressing the reporters on Thursday, Chennai police commissioner Shankar Jiwal said that the police are staunchly searching Madan who has been absconded. On the other hand, Madan had moved to Madras High Court on Thursday seeking anticipatory bail in the case against him. After hearing his plea, Justice Dhandapani had instructed Madan's counsel to table the bail plea after listening to the obscene language used by Madan. The Justice has also directed the police to compile Madan's Youtube recordings and file the digital evidence.
