Supreme Court stays inquiry into Jayalalithaa death
New Delhi, Apr 26 (UNI): The Supreme Court on Friday stayed an inquiry into the death of former Tamil Nadu chief minister J. Jayalalithaa, who had died at a Chennai hospital in 2016.
“Stay of further proceedings of the inquiry commission," a bench led by Chief Justice Ranjan Gogoi said.
The bench stayed the probe into the death of Jayalalithaa, after hearing the plea filed by Apollo Hospitals challenging the April 4 order of the Madras High Court rejecting its objection against the inquiry into the death of the AIADMK leader at the hospital.
The state government of Tamil Nadu had constituted the inquiry committee, headed by Justice A. Arumughaswamy, to look into the sequence of events leading to the death of Jayalalithaa on 5 December, 2016.
