| Jayalalithaa expels companion Sasik |
| Jayalalithaa expels companion Sasikala from AIADMK

| Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa has expelled her close aide, Sasikala Natarajan, and her relatives from her party, the AIADMK. No reason has been given so far for the drastic step.
Sasikala has long served as Jayalalithaa's companion, and lives with her. She is one of the main accused in a case that alleges the Chief Minister misused her office from 1991-1996 to collect assets worth 66 crores that cannot be accounted for.
That case is being tried by a Bangalore court to ensure a fair trial. Jayalalithaa objected to being summoned by that court, but was ordered by the Supreme Court to appear in person to answer questions. Sasikala travelled with her for those hearings in a special plane from Chennai.
The 12 people expelled today from the AIADMK include Jayalalithaa's estranged foster son and Sasikala's nephew, VN Sudhakaran. His lavish wedding to the grand-daughter of Tamil superstar sivaji Ganesan had landed Jayalaltihaa in a major controversy in 1996.
