The Daily Guardian
|February 15, 2025
The Karnataka High Court in the case rejected the appeal of J Deepa's wherein the court observed that there was a clear finding recorded by the Supreme Court that the order of confiscation and other directions have to be adhered to by all concerned, including the LRs (Legal Representatives) of deceased A1 (Jayalalithaa).
The Supreme Court in the case J Deepa vs The Superintendent of Police observed and has dismissed a petition filed by J Deepa, the niece of former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa, wherein seeking the return of the properties confiscated in the disproportionate assets case against Jayalalithaa.
The bench comprising of Justice BV Nagarathna and Justice Satish Chandra Sharma was hearing the present matter.
The bench in the case refused to interfere with the Karnataka High Court's order, wherein the court refused to release Jayalalithaa's assets to her heirs.
The argument of the petitioner before the court is that since the criminal case against Jayalalithaa got abated following her death in December 2016, her assets seized during the proceedings have to be released.

Turns out it’s a 400d, and though I had the more powerful car, I slowed down as I didn’t want to give him an impression that I was trying to race.
