RE: Jayalalithaa's Bail Plea Rejected

The Karnataka High Court on Tuesday rejected
bail plea of former Tamil Nadu chief minister
J. Jayalalithaa in a disproportionate assets
case.
Here are the live updates:
4.53pm: Cases of violence being reported
across Tamil Nadu.
4.52pm: Bangalore Commissioner of Police MN
Reddi on twitter: J Jayalalithaa's bail plea
rejected. However situation under control near
central prison. Police forces increased & are
watchful.
4.48pm: Justice A V Chandrashekhra: No
ground for bail to Jayalalithaa. Corruption is
violation of human rights
4:38pm: Lawyer Ram Jethmalani: I am
disappointed. My client will decide when and
how to approach the Supreme Court
Earlier, the bench began hearing of the
criminal revision petition of the jailed former
Tamil Nadu CM amid tight security.
A regular bench headed by Justice A.V.
Chandrashekara was hearing Jayalalithaa's
revision petition, argued by her counsel and
noted lawyer Ram Jethmalani seeking
suspension of the sentence and bail from jail.
A special court on September 27 had convicted
Jayalalithaa in the Rs 66-crore disproportionate
assets' case and sentenced her to four years'
simple imprisonment, with a fine of Rs 100
crore under the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and
the Prevention of Corruption Act.
"Jethmalani sought immediate bail for
Jayalalithaa on health grounds, as she has
diabetes, low blood pressure, acute back pain
and is aged (66 years)," one of her defence
lawyers said.
In his 90-minute deposition, Jethmalani also
assured the judge that his client (Jayalalithaa)
would abide by any condition put forth for bail,
as she was a former chief minister and would
not disappear or escape from the country.
Special public prosecutor G. Bhavani Singh,
however, opposed the bail plea, asserting that
Jayalalithaa may influence witness and tamper
with evidence if set free, as she was powerful
and supremo of the ruling party (AIADMK) in
Tamil Nadu.

RE: Jayalalithaa, Moves Supreme Court for Bail

J Jayalalithaa's lawyers have filed an appeal in the Supreme Court against the Karnataka High Court's dismissal of the former Tamil Nadu chief minister's petition for bail.

Ms Jayalalithaa, 66, has been in prison now for 12 days, after being convicted on charges of corruption by a court in Bangalore, where her case was transferred in 2001 from her home state to ensure her political clout would not influence the trial.

Ms Jayalalithaa's lawyers want her four-year sentence to be suspended and bail to be granted. The Supreme Court will go on vacation for Diwali from October 18 to 26 - if judges do not decide on her appeal before then, the AIADMK leader may have to spend the festival in jail.


Ms Jayalalithaa's conviction meant that she was automatically disqualified as a legislator and had to step down as Chief Minister in the middle of her third term in that post - the Supreme Court said last year that any law-maker found guilty of serious criminal charges stands immediately disqualified from office, even if an appeal is filed against the conviction. She has handpicked a party loyalist O Panneerselvam to fill in for her as Chief Minister.

Assembly elections are due in the state in 2016 and unless her conviction is set aside, Jayalalithaa will not be able to contest. DMK chief M Karunanidhi said yesterday that her "comeback to power can only be a dream. It would never be fulfilled."

The DMK was ousted from power by Ms Jayalalithaa's party the AIADMK in the 2011 state elections. In national elections this year, her party won 37 of Tamil Nadu's 39 seats to become the third-largest party in Parliament. The DMK was wiped out, winning no seat.
