The Income Tax Department had attached four immovable properties belonging to former Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa in 2007. The attached properties include her Poes Garden residence named Veda Nilayam, a commercial space at Parson Manere on Anna Salai, a property on St Mary’s Road and a house in Hyderabad Srinagar colony.
