Sasikala Granted 5-Day Parole To Visit Ailing Husband In Chennai
Bengaluru: Jailed AIADMK leader VK Sasikala has been granted a 5-day parole and is likely to visit Chennai on Friday to meet her husband, who is recovering from a surgery.
The former AIADMK general secretary had applied for a 15-day parole on Monday citing husband Natarajan's surgery as the reason. After examining her application, Parappana Agrahara Prison Superintendent PS Ramesh granted a parole for just five days.
Natarajan, who is suffering from critical kidney and liver ailments, had an organ transplant at Chennai's Gleneagles Global Hospital.
Sasikala is in Bengaluru prison since February after the Supreme Court upheld her conviction in a disproportionate assets case. Her relatives Ilavarasi and VN Sudhakaran are also serving four-year jail terms in the same prison.
