> The Supreme Court bench of Justice Pinaki Chandra Ghose and Justice Amitava Roy set aside the May 11, 2015, Karnataka High Court order acquitting V.K. Sasikala, her two relatives — V.N. Sudhakaran and J. Elavarasi, and late Tamil Nadu chief minister J. Jayalalith­aa. > The immediate fallout of the top court verdict is that Sasikala is out of the electoral field for 10 years — four years in incarcerat­ion and six years of disqualifi­cation under the Representa­tion of Peoples Act after her release. > The court orders the three to surrender before the trial court “forthwith”.
