| The CBI special court hearing the 2G scam case will give its decision on Kanimozhi's bail plea on May 14.
The Tamil Nadu Chief Minister's daughter had applied for bail via her high-profile lawyer, Ram Jethmalani, on Friday. The CBI opposed her bail plea in court today.
"Kanimozhi is the controlling mind behind Kalaignar TV. Behind the scenes, she took the decisions," Special Public Prosecutor UU Lalit told the court on behalf of the CBI.
"She had been in regular touch with Raja regarding the launch of Kalaignar TV. He lobbied with the Information and Broadcasting Ministry for permits for Kalaignar TV. Kanimozhi was the active brain behind the channel. If a family controls 80% stake in a company, it's hard to believe that anyone else can be the brain behind it," he added.
If denied bail, the DMK Rajya Sabha MP will go to jail. "Let us see what happens in court," she said as she arrived for the hearing earlier this morning.
Kanimozhi has been accused by the CBI of accepting a bribe along with her party man, A Raja, who was Telecom Minister and is now in jail for allegedly designing India's biggest scam birthed during the allocation of spectrum and licenses in 2008
