The Madras High Court is directed to list a petition that seeks registration of an FIR and a money-laundering investigation against Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) chief Vijay. According to reports, the case was not numbered by the Registry earlier, but it is numbered on Wednesday (May 6, 2026) after the court instructs that the question of maintainability be decided by the judges. The petition relates to an income tax dispute that dates to 2015, with the petitioner alleging Vijay suppressed income. The plea requests that law enforcement conduct an FIR-linked probe and investigate potential money laundering connected to the alleged suppression. While the Registry initially refused to number the matter, the High Court’s direction focuses on procedural listing rather than ruling on whether the petition is maintainable at this stage. Both outlets report the same timeline and core relief sought, indicating the court is ensuring the matter is placed before it for judicial consideration.
