Chennai, Dec 29: An Economic Offences Wing Court today directed AIADMK Supremo J Jayalalithaa and her close aide Sasikala to appear before it on January 29 in connection with the Income Tax cases registered against them.
When the case came up for hearing, Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate J V Raj held it was a fit case for framing charges.
He adjourned the case to January 29, directing Ms Jayalalithaa and Ms Sasikala to appear before the court on that day.
It may be recalled that the Magistrate had on June 14 dismissed the petitions filed by the two seeking to discharge them from the IT cases pending against them.
The case IS related to non-filing of Income-tax returns by Ms Jayalalithaa and Ms Sasikala for the assessment year 1993-94. In another case, in which M/s Sasi Enterprises was cited as accused, the two again failed to file returns in their capacity as partners of the firm for the assessment year 1991-92 and 1992-93.
