Tamil Nadu Chief minister Jayalalithaa has been found guilty in disproportionate assets case by a special court in Bangalore today. A special court in Bangalore pronounced its verdict in the 18-year-old 66.65 crore rupees disproportionate assets case against Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Jayalalithaa.

Ms Jayalalithaa arrived Bangalore this morning to appear before the court amid tight security.

She is accompanied by her close aide Sasikala Natarajan, another accused in the case, besides Ilavarasi . The other accused in the case is Jayalalithaa's disowned foster son V N Sudhakaran.

The Bangalore city police promulgated prohibitory orders under section 144 of Cr.PC as a precautionary measure ahead of the court delivering its verdict. The disproportionate assets case against Jayalalithaa was transferred to Bangalore's Special Court in 2003 by the Supreme Court on a petition filed by DMK leader K Anbazhagan who had expressed doubts over conduct of fair trail in Tamil Nadu as Jayalalithaa ruled the state then.
