Chennai: turning the foot of the state government’s decision to start further investigation into the murder of the Plantation of Kodanad and Case Burglary, the Supreme Court on Tuesday refused to disturb the investigation and said “the truth must come out”.
The verdict about the special leave petition submitted by Anubhav Ravi, an AIADMK official, who opposed further investigation, said that he would postpone the ongoing experiments in the Nilgiris session court, the bench headed by Justice D Y Chandrachud tried to stop the petition.
But then claimed it was withdrawn after senior adviser Siddharth Luthra, representing Ravi, looking for court permission to withdraw a request.
Orders may have political consequences because the deck has now been cleaned for police TN to call and interrogate witnesses and suspects.
This case concerns the murder of a security guard and theft at Kodanad Estate, owned by former CM CM JayaLalitHAA and his friend V K Sasikala, in 2017.
Sasikala in Bengaluru prison.
Chargesheet has been put forward against 11 suspects and trials have reached the advanced stage when the DMK government just quoted several gaps and began investigating further.
