The sleuths of Directorate of Vigilance of Anti Corruption (DVAC) today raided 18 premises of former AIADMK MLA from T Nagar B Sathyanarayanan. A total of 18 properties belonging to him across Chennai are being scanned.
It may be recalled that the Madras High Court recently directed DVAC to complete within two months its preliminary inquiry on a disproportionate assets complaint lodged against Sathyanarayanan and register a First Information Report (FIR) if a cognisable offence was made out.
Justice N. Anand Venkatesh issued the direction on a petition moved by the complainant B.R. Aravindakshan who complained that the DVAC had not registered a case so far on the complaint lodged on November 22, 2021 along with documents to prove that the former MLA, representing T. Nagar constituency, had amassed wealth.
