Tamil Nadu chief minister J Jayalalithaa on Tuesday filed two more defamation cases against BJP leader Subramanian Swamy for his comments on Twitter.
City Public Prosecutor (CPP) ML Jegan filed the cases on behalf of Jayalalithaa before the Principal Sessions Court.
Swamy’s comments in Twitter on 20 September allegedly ridiculed her, the CPP contended.
He submitted that Jayalalithaa was respected and supported in high esteem by the people of all sections and Swamy’s statement was defamatory in nature and without any base and verification.
Another defamation case was also filed against Swamy in the court for his comments in the Twitter on 17 September regarding her assets.
This statement of Swamy is defamatory in nature and would defame the chief minister in the eyes of public, the CPP submitted.
A local court had on 17 September ordered issue of summons to Swamy to appear before it on 30 October in connection with a defamation suit filed against him over his remarks related to the issue of Tamil Nadu fishermen being detained by Sri Lanka.
