Congress president Sonia Gandhi and vice president Rahul Gandhi will also soon head to jail, following in the footsteps of former Tamil Nadu chief minister Jayalalithaa, said BJP functionary Subramaian Swamy on Monday. It was on a complaint registered by Swamy that the court had framed charges in the disproportionate assets case against the former Tamil Nadu chief minister, currently lodged in a Bangalore jail.

Swamy was in Bareilly to address a meeting of the Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS). He said the conviction of Jayalalithaa was a landmark event, and said the Gandhi mother-son duo faced the prospect of conviction too, in the Rs 5,000 crore National Herald ownership case. Concluding arguments in that case are to be heard in a Delhi court on October 1.

Swamy had filed a complaint in November 2012, saying that Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi had fraudulently acquired a public limited company with real estate in Delhi and Uttar Pradesh. While the acquired place was meant only for the publication of a newspaper, a passport office was running from the premises, he had said.
