It's pin drop silence outside Veda Nilayam in Poes Garden - residence of late chief minister J Jayalalithaa - after Supreme Court convicted AIADMK general secretary V K Sasikala and three others in the disproportionate asset case.
Sasikala now lives in Poes Garden.
It's like a mourning, said Sangeetha, who cried as the verdict was announced.
There was an initial celebration and crackers were burst when the verdict was announced on news that Sasikala and others were acquitted. But the sound died down within seconds when it was confirmed that all were convicted.
