The All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) leader T.T.V. Dinakaran is again in the news headlines. The Supreme Court today dismissed his appeal against the Madras High Court order to face trial in a Foreign Exchange Regulation Act (FERA) case.

The court has ordered that the case should be completed within three months and there will be a penalty if there is any attempt to delay. The leader is currently, facing two cases which are filed by  Enforcement Directorate against him for alleged violations of the FERA. 

The court had framed charges against him for illegally routing U.S. dollars in foreign exchange without taking permission from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and depositing it in the current account of Dipper Investments Ltd.

The second is the transfer of 44.37 lakh pounds through the West Bank Ltd., Ireland, allegedly breaching FERA provisions.
