    Case Summary: WP/22340/2026 The Madras High Court dismissed a public interest litigation petition filed by an AIADMK member seeking CBI investigation into alleged corruption involving four legislators who resigned from the Tamil Nadu Assembly and joined the rival TVK party. The court held that the petition was entirely based on conjecture and suspicion without concrete evidence of any quid pro quo or unlawful inducement, characterizing it as a "fishing expedition." The court emphasized that CBI investigations cannot be ordered merely on subjective beliefs, and political party-switching alone—without proof of corruption under the Prevention of Corruption Act—does not constitute criminal misconduct. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
