Ordered by the Supreme Court to surrender "immediately", VK Sasikala is driving from Chennai to Bengaluru, where she will be jailed. On the way, Ms Sasikala stopped at the memorial of J Jayalalithaa - the powerful matriarch of the ruling AIADMK who died while she was Chief Minister in December - and made what the party called a "mighty vow." For years, she lived with Ms Sasikala, who performed the last rites at her funeral on Chennai's Marina Beach, where the politician was buried. It was her impregnable proximity to Ms Jayalalithaa that led Ms Sasikala to easily assume the centre of power after the Chief Minister's death. But her attempt to take the job that Ms Jayalalitaa held several times was stomped out by the Supreme Court yesterday, which found her guilty of corruption. (Audio in Hindi)
