On 14th February 2017, Sasikala was found guilty of corruption by the Supreme Court and was sentenced to four years in prison. She was barred from contesting an election for the next ten years. Sasikala, who was the close confidante of late Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa, returned to Amma's good books after publicly distancing herself from Natarajan and his family.  Reports inform that Sasikala had spent three weeks in the same prison in 2014 along with Jayalalithaa, after both were held guilty of making a fortune beyond their known sources of income in the 1990s.
