Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J. Jayalalithaa on Friday resumed answering questions from a special court judge here in the disproportionate assets case against her.
She had on Thursday answered 379 questions asked by special court judge B.M. Mallikarjunaiah. She will face an equal number of posers Friday, her lawyers said.
Mallikarjunaiah is holding a special sitting in the city central prison complex in eastern suburb of Parappana Agrahara in view of the leader's security needs.
Jayalalithaa is charged with amassing Rs.66 crore between 1991 and 1996 when also she was chief minister of Tamil Nadu.
The case was filed in Chennai over a decade ago but was transferred to Bangalore by the Supreme Court in 2003 to ensure fair and free trial.
Like Thursday she landed at the Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd's airport in city centre and drove in a convoy of vehicles to the prison complex.
Jayalalithaa was directed by the Supreme Court to appear in person in the Bangalore court though she had cited security concerns and her busy schedule as chief minister to seek exemption.
The apex court had rejected her plea to be allowed to give her statement through video conference.
The Parappana Agrahara jail was heavily guarded with around 1,500 Bangalore police personnel assisted by several of their Tamil Nadu counterparts.
