HC junks Karti's plea against transfer of tax evasion case to special court

The Madras High Court on Tuesday
Rejecting the arguments of the petitioner that he was neither an MP nor MLA as on the date of alleged offence or when the complaints were lodged, Justice M Sundar said, "as Hon'ble Supreme Court has directed all pending cases to be transferred, this argument fails."
"Likewise, the argument that only one of the petitioners has become an MP is of no avail to petitioners, as Hon'ble Supreme Court has directed transfer of all cases involving sitting or former MPs and MLAs."
