Only Governor, not government can grant sanction to conduct investigation against me in ₹100-crore fraud case, Anbil Mahesh Poyyamozhi claims before Madras High Court
Anbil Mahesh Poyyamozhi, a former state official, told the Madras High Court that only a governor can authorize an investigation into a ₹100‑crore fraud case. He seeks the quashing of the FIR, arguing that the sanction was improperly granted by a Public Department Secretary on 23 June 2026. The court will consider his claim in the state of Tamil Nadu.
