Chennai's Apollo Hospitals informed the Madras High Court on Thursday that it doesn't have any biological samples of late Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa, who was admitted at the hospital in 2016.
The hospital management made the submission in response to a query raised by Justice S Vaidyanathan in this regard, while hearing a plea moved by Bengaluru-based Amrutha claiming to be Jayalalithaa’s biological daughter. She also wanted the court to order DNA test to prove her claim.
The Tamil Nadu government has also filed an affidavit in the court, saying there was no evidence with the government to prove the woman's claim.
The woman had claimed she had been given in adoption to Jayalalithaa's sister and her husband decades ago and she came to know about it from her foster father in March last year before he died.
