The release of late Chief Minister Jayalalithaa’s aide V.K. Sasikala, who is serving a prison term in a disproportionate assets case, will happen as per court judgment and prison norms, Karnataka Home Minister Basavaraj Bommai said on Friday.
“Whatever judgment is there... conditions in the judgment, as well as regarding fine and punishment, and the prison norms will decide (the release),” he said in response to a question from reporters here on Sasikala’s release.
“Everything will be as per law only, nothing else,” he said.
A fine of over ₹10 crore imposed on Sasikala was remitted to the 34th City Civil Court, Bengaluru, by way of demand drafts, her counsel N. Raja Senthoor Pandian had said on Wednesday, as he expected her to be set free soon, earlier than the scheduled release date of January 27, 2021.
