Chennai, Dec 27 (IBNS): The Income Tax Department on Wednesday resumed its search operation at six premises belonging to jailed AIDAMK leader V K Sasikala and her family members in Chennai and other places, media reports said.

The search operations were carried out at Midas Distilleries at Padappai near Chennai, Sai Group of Companies in Padappai, the Adyar residence of Karthikeyan (the son-in-law of Sasikala's relative Illavarasi), a college in Coimbatore and its treasurer's house.

This comes three days after Sasikala's nephew TTV Dhinakaran won the RK Nagar bypoll as an independent candidate.

The jailed leader, who aspired to take the mantle of the departed party icon J Jayalalithaa as the undisputed supremo starting off a series of events that rocked the organisation, was first stripped of all posts of the party and then expelled.
