Claimant to Jayalalithaa estate dies; Madras HC seeks verification of Mysuru address

The Madras High Court was informed that N.J. Vasudevan, who claimed to be Jayalalithaa's half-brother and sought 50% of her properties, has died. The court directed its registry to verify by issuing notice to his Mysuru address. This development affects the ongoing succession dispute over the former Tamil Nadu chief minister's estate.
