The official website of the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam, >www.aiadmkallindia.org , was on Saturday hacked by a group which calls itself Pakistan Haxors Crew. The group posted a symbol featuring a skull and the Pakistan flag and posted messages like “Islam Zindabad , Long Live Muslims , Pakistan Zindabad” and “HACKED BY H4$N4!N H4XOR”.

“We Are PHC ( PAKISTAN HAXORS CREW ) We Just Want Justice & Peace,” the group said in its post along with an email id. A scroll with anti-India messages was also posted with names purported to be members of the group.

The site is now offline with visitors being greeted with a message “This Website is under construction”.

According to sources Chennai Police confirmed the hacking attack and had the cyber team block the website. Senior police officers are now working with cyber experts in the Cyber Lab at the new Chennai Police Commissionerate to retrieve the ruling party site, sources added.

PTI adds:

The official website of the party’s TV channel www.jayatv.tv also displayed the same screen, playing a song uploaded by hackers.

However, there was no immediate reaction from the party or the TV channel.
