Bengaluru: Karnataka HC rejected the bail plea of jailed former TN CM J Jayalalithaa, abruptly ending frenzied celebrations by her supporters after one of her lawyers said she had got conditional bail. Justice A V Chandrashekara, who heard the petition, also declined to suspend the 66-year old’s 4-year jail term even after Special Public Prosecutor G Bhavani Singh submitted he had no objection to the application moved by Ram Jethmalani. The judge observed: “SC has clearly indicated that corruption violates human rights and leads to economic imbalance.” In TN, tens of thousands of supporters erupted in joy after media erroneously reported that she had got conditional bail.
