Chennai:HC stays proceedings against stalin

The Madras high court has stayed the proceedings pending before the special court, constituted exclusively to try cases relating to MPs and MLAs, against the then DMK treasurer M.K.Stalin for allegedly issuing defamatory statements against former chief minister late J.Jayalalithaa in 2012.

Justice P.N.Prakash however directed Stalin to appear before the special court within two weeks and give an undertaking that he will appear before the special court without waiting for summons in the event of criminal original petition is dismissed.

In his petition, Stalin submitted that the allegations levelled against him have been made with malicious motive to wreck vengeance against the DMK party and it was a case of political vendetta and therefore the case on the file of the special court was liable to be quashed.
