SC declines to stay trial in DA case involving Sasikala Natrajan

The Supreme Court today declined to stay the trial in a disproportionate assets case involving Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa's estranged aide Sasikala Natrajan. Both are facing the proceedings in a Bangalore court.

A vacation bench of the apex court, however, allowed Sasikala to place on record relevant materials relating to her claim that she has not been provided with certain documents relating to the questions being put to her in the ongoing day-to-day trial. The court granted two weeks time to Sasikala to place on record the necessary material in support of her contention.

Jaya and others are accused of amassing disproportionate wealth during her tenure as chief minister in 1991-96.
