Father Karunanidhi will meet daughter Kanimozhi in Tihar again
NEW DELHI (ANS): On Tuesday the Former Tamil Nadu chief minister M. Karunanidhi will visit Delhi to meet to his daughter and Rajya Sabha member Kanimozhi for second time in the Tihar Central Jail. He met his daughter in the prison last month.
A party leader said, “Karunanidhi is expected to meet Kanimozhi Tuesday. He is really upset that her bail plea was rejected in the Supreme Court.”
He said Karunanidhi is also likely to meet former communications minister A. Raja as well as Kalaignar TV managing director Sharad Kumar, who is in jail as accused in the 2G spectrum allocation case.
Kanimozhi is in Tihar jail since May 20 after her bail plea was rejected first by the special Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) court and then by the Delhi High Court.
A DMK source said, “We thought Kanimozhi would get the bail today. It is a real blow to our (DMK) party. Rajathi Ammal (Kanimozhi’s mother) is in the capital to give moral support to her daughter.”
The trial court of CBI Special Judge O.P. Saini is in recess till July 4, after which it will resume hearing on the chargesheet filed by the CBI in the 2G case.
Director General of the Tihar jail, said he was not aware of any impending visit by Karunanidhi.
