Deposed AIADMK leader V.K. Sasikala, who is currently serving her sentence in a Bengaluru prison after her conviction in a disproportionate assets case , has applied for parole to meet her ailing husband M. Natarajan.
He is awaiting a liver transplant in a hospital in Chennai.
Sasikala’s nephew T.T.V. Dhinakaran told journalists, “We have applied for parole for our ‘General Secretary’. Most probably she might come out on parole tomorrow.”
Her advocates have sought for a 15-day parole, but Mr. Dhinakaran said he was not sure how many days she would be granted leave.
When asked about the health condition of Mr. Natarajan, Mr. Dhinakaran said he was “stable” and was still awaiting a liver transplant.
