Bigg Boss contestant Kavin’s mom arrested in chit fund case

Actor Kavin, who is at present inside the Bigg Boss House as part of the Bigg Boss Tamil Season 3 contest, might not have very pleasant news when he steps out.

A judicial magistrate court in Trichy has sentenced the actor’s mother, his grandmother and aunt to five years imprisonment in a chit fund cheating case. All three were arrested and taken to the Trichy Central Prison after the verdict. Apart from the jail sentence, the court also imposed a fine of Rs 2000 on each of them.

The court found Kavin’s mother A Rajalakshmi, grandmother Thamayanthi and aunt S Rani guilty of cheating 29 depositors of Rs 32.28 lakh through their unregistered chit fund company.

The depositors, who lodged a complaint with the Economic Offences Wing of the Trichy Police in 2007, claimed that the trio had not returned their money even after the maturity period.
