Dated 24.12.2017
The Arumughaswamy Commission, formed by the Tamil Nadu government to probe the demise of ex-CM J Jayalalithaa, on Friday issued summoned her former aide VK Sasikala.
Sasikala is currently serving a four-year term in Bengaluru's Parapana Agrahara jail after being convicted in the DA (disproportionate assets) case by the SC.
The panel, which is headed by retired judge A Arumughaswamy, has given Sasikala 15 days to respond to the summons.
It is yet to be decided if Sasikala will appear in person or through a video conference.
Sasikala had been Amma's confidante for more than 30 years. In 2011, Sasikala and her famous Mannargudi family had been kicked out by Jayalalithaa.
However, after some years, Sasikala staged a comeback with her "sister" Jayalalithaa.
At a time when there is intense speculation even one year after the former TN CM's death on several issues relating to her illness and line of treatment, Sasikala was the one who spent most time with her.
