À propos de cet e-book

“JAYALALITHAA WEALTH CASE: TRIAL COURT JUDGEMENT”  (VOLUME ONE)” : This is a digitised, unabridged, and the original version of Jayalalithaa Wealth Case. Miss. Jayalalithaa, the six-times Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, India, was accused of misusing her office during her first tenure i.e. 1991-96. Thereafter she and three others were charged over amassing properties worth nearly 66 crore INR; 3000 acres worth assets inclusive of farm houses and bungalows, agricultural lands and private firms, vineyards and tea estates in Tamil Nadu and Hyderabad; moveable assets included 800 kg silver, 28 kg gold, 750 pair of shoes, 10,500 saris, 91 watches, and other valuables. The Karnataka Trial Court Judgement ended in their conviction on 27th September 2014; the High Court of Karnataka acquitted all of them from all the charges through its judgement on 11th May 2015; ironically “the Sword of Damocles” fell on Jayalalithaa (after her death on 6/12/2016) and three others through the Judgement of Supreme Court of India on 15th February 2017 in which the order, the conviction, and the sentence of the trial court was restored in full and the judgement of Karnataka High Court was set-aside. While the appeals relate to Miss. Jayalalithaa, she having expired meanwhile, stand abated, the remaining three accused are to meet the cold hands of Justice. This series of Judgements of Trial Court, High Court, and Supreme Court expose the finer aspects of this protracted litigation involving high profile people in the annals of Indian Legal History.
