The Madras High Court is set to hear MRK Panneerselvam’s plea seeking discharge in the 2011 disproportionate assets case. The hearing is scheduled for July 13, with references also indicating it will be taken up on the same day as an earlier notice. The plea is described as his second discharge application. A previous discharge request was allowed by a magistrate in 2016, but that order was overturned by the High Court in 2025. The current proceedings therefore follow the High Court’s 2025 reversal of the earlier decision permitting discharge. In this context, the court’s upcoming hearing focuses on whether Panneerselvam can be discharged in the case relating to allegations of disproportionate assets tied to the 2011 period. The reporting indicates no final outcome is decided yet, and the matter is currently at the stage of judicial consideration of the discharge plea.
