A Bench comprising chief justice SA Dharmadhikari and Justice G Arul Murugan issued notices to Vijay, along with the Director General of Income Tax (Investigation), the Election Commission of India (ECI), and the Returning Officers for the Perambur and Tiruchirappalli (East) constituencies. The petitioner has alleged that the disappearance of a high-value asset amounts to a clear case of suppression of assets, raising serious concerns regarding beneficial ownership, routing of funds, and the concealment of material particulars.
