The Special Court in Bangalore will pronounce verdict on the disproportionate assets case against Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Jayalalithaa on September 27.

Also, the court will shift to a temporary location on that day in view of security to be provided to Ms. Jayalalithaa for her personal appearance.

The court postponed the date for pronoucement of verdict to September 27 from earlier fixed date of September 20 to enable the city poice to make security arrangements at Gandhi Bhavan, near Prappana Agrahara central prison, where the court will prononuce its verdict.

Gandhi Bhavan is the same location where the court had recorded Ms. Jayalalithaa's statements in 2011 by temporarily shifting to this location in view of security to be provided to her.

Ms Jayalalithaa had, on Monday, requested the court to shift to a safe place in view of her security.
