In August 2011 her lawyer told a special CBI judge that Kanimozhi did not even know that her company was taking a Rs 200 crore loan at a 10 percent interest rate. Her lawyer added that holding shares did not mean she participated in the day-to-day affairs of the company,The petition is expected to be taken up for hearing sometime next week.
