A bench of justices S M Subramaniam and G Arul Murugan gave the direction on a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) petition filed by an AIADMK councillor of the 83rd Ward of the civic body, T Ravi, seeking CBI investigation into the alleged ₹200-crore scam in which bribes are said to have been taken to lower the valuation of properties.
