NTR saved Jayalalitha in DA case
The Karnataka high court overturned a trial court judgment and acquitted AIADMK chief J Jayalalithaa and her three associates in an 18-year-old disproportionate assets case.

But what is noteworthy here is that former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister NTR bailed Amma in the case.
Yes.. As per sources HC judge KR Kumaraswamy referred the order issued by then NTR’S Govt before pronouncing his verdict.According to that order property owned by public servants cannot be regarded as illegally earned. This GO was taken as a reference and it helped Amma to some extent.
Judge also calculated that the percentage of disproportionate assets relative to income is 8.12%, which is less than the "permissible limit" of 10%. "It is relatively small... Therefore accused are entitled for acquittal," he wrote in his judgment.
