"The case is under Supreme Court monitoring and had it not been in court jurisdiction these things wouldn't be happening," Ramaswamy told a TV channel.

Talking about the verdict, he said: "This is something which was not unexpected as it has been in the court for quite some time because of adjournment and including Kanimozhi everybody would be expecting it."

Kanimozhi and Kalaignar TV Managing Director Sharad Kumar, named as co-conspirators in the 2G spectrum scam, were Friday taken into custody after a special Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) court rejected their bail pleas.

"There is evidence against her … Kalaignar TV had a lot of trouble in answering about money transferred to them. Socio-cultural organisation Tamizh Maiyam is now revealing donation from telecom companies."
