In September last year, Justice Arumughaswamy was appointed to head the probe into the death of Jayalalithaa.


J Jayalalithaa, popularly known as 'Amma', was taken to Chennai's Apollo hospital on September 22 last year and treated in the hospital for 75 days before she breathed her last on December 5.
