An advocate has approached the Madras High Court seeking a direction to the Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-Corruption (DVAC) to register a First Information Report (FIR) on the basis of Finance Minister N. Marie Wilson’s claim in the Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly that he was a victim of corruption in the School Education Department during the previous DMK regime.

The plea is expected to be listed for hearing before the first Division Bench of Chief Justice Sushrut Arvind Dharmadhikari and Justice G. Arul Murugan since it had been filed as a public interest litigation (PIL) petition. K. Sivasubramaniam of Chennai had filed the petition seeking a direction to register an FIR against the Minister, as the payment of a bribe was also a criminal offence.
