The high court held five persons, including Natarjan, guilty of evading duty to the tune of Rs 1 crore while importing a luxury car, Lexus, in 1994, by allegedly forging the model of the car in the documents.

Last month, the Supreme Court granted bail to Natarajan and asked him to deposit Rs 25 lakh each in its registry. He didn’t appear in the past hearings citing poor health.

Sasikala herself is serving a four-year prison term in a disproportionate assets case.
