CHENNAI: Proceedings in the Justice Arumughaswamy fee, which is tasked with discovering the cases surrounding former chief minister J Jayalalithaa’s dying, took a curious turn on Monday with evidences being submitted relating to AIADMK leaders who have been removed from birthday celebration posts after 2011.
On Monday, Kartikeyan, an assistant to Jayalalithaa and her shut aide V Ok Sasikala, was once cross-examined by Sasikala’s legal professionals. “I was proven clippings of Namathu MGR and requested about the elimination of AIADMK leaders from 2011 onwards,” he said.
Sasikala’s counsels have filed affidavits containing the press clippings of the undivided AIADMK’s erstwhile mouthpiece Namadhu MGR, which carried Jayalalithaa’s statements ordering elimination of birthday celebration leaders Natham Viswanathan, O Pannerselvam’s son Raveendranath, R Nataraj, T Nagar Sathya, Thoppu Venkatachalam, V Maithreyan and Ok P Munusamy.
“Why we've accomplished this, you're going to come to know later,” said Raja Senthoor Pandian, Sasikala’s counsel, indicating that they have been laying the sphere for one thing larger later.
Sources said that the unique affidavit filed by Sasikala states that she was once removed from the birthday celebration in 2011 due to former Thuglak editor Cho Ramaswamy’s machinations. This was once showed by Pandian to TOI.
Curiously, Sasikala’s counsel has submitted a memo, declaring that they don’t want to cross-examine former IPS officers Amaresh Pujari, Ok Ramanujam, Thamarai Kannan and J Ok Tripathy; and Jayalalithaa’s two drivers Kannan and Iyappan.
“These IPS officers have been requested about Sasikala’s elimination from the birthday celebration in 2011. They have categorically informed the fee that there are not any audio recordings or tapes which display a conspiracy towards Jayalalithaa by Sasikala,” Pandian said, adding that they've cross-examined best those folks they sought after to.
Of the 35 witnesses, 24 have been cross-examined and only some extra have been left, Pandian said, indicating that they have been in no way delaying the probe as alluded to by the Justice Arumughaswamy in his previous orders.
