TN CM meets Jayalalithaa
Reversing a judgement of conviction by a trial court last September, the Karnataka High Court on Monday acquitted former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa in a disproportionate assets case going back to more than 18 years, thus paving the way for her return as the Chief Minister of the southern state.
The verdict came as a big relief to the AIADMK supremo and a set back to her opposition. Celebrations by her supporters broke out outside her residence in Chennai.
Jaya's lawyer B Kumar said the case against her couldn't be proved and hence she has been let off.
