ADVOCATE: HIGH COURT Spencer Plaza,
Ref: W.P. Crl. No. 74 of 2026 dated 20.02.2026
Sub: Non-Compliance of the order dated 20.02.2026 – Regarding:

Sir,
Under instruction of my client, I.S. Inbadurai, Son of
Inbanayagam,aged about 59 years, Member of Parliament, Rajya
Sabha, Secretary of the Advocate Wing of AIADMK, having office at 366, 2nd floor, Old Shaw Wallace Building , Thambu Chetty Street, do hereby serve you with the following notice, the contents of which are set forth herein below: –

1. Your persistent violation to the law of the land and that too, in matters concerning non registering of a criminal case against a minister is a matter of deep concern. Consciously and deliberately you are acting in a manner that promotes lawlessness and corruption in high office and you seem to disregard the moral values and duties of the office that enjoins on you to perform, i.e., prosecute the wrong and corrupt, even without even being called upon by anyone.
2. The High court frowned on you for not registering the case against Mr. Nehru, a minister in the Tamil Nadu cabinet in WP. Crl. 74 of 2026 dt. 20-02-2026, and specific directions were given calling upon you to forthwith register a case on information shared by the Enforcement Directorate on 27.10.2025.
3. We understand that you have not registered an FIR as mandated by the Court and continue to exhibit a hostile attitude in gross violation to the orders of the Court. This conduct of yours is nothing but contemptuous and a conscious attempt to bypass the orders of the High court and the majesty of law and justice. Your insolent attitude exhibits an obstinate approach to the directions issued by a Constitutional authority. By this legal notice, our client demands of you to register the case and upload it on the website maintained for this purpose. Please note, the law is not mute or crippled by your deliberate inaction. The High court has already observed that your inaction in registering the case is a good ground for constituting a body capable of doing its duty.
4. Your attention is drawn to paragraph 60 of the order of the High court. For your easy reference, we are also extracting it in this notice;
“60. In view of the deliberations, though we are prima facie satisfied that the investigation could be entrusted to an independent specialized agency, considering the fact that the Vigilance Department has been entrusted with the case by the State, we deem it appropriate that the second respondent/Vigi/ance Department should be directed to forthwith register a case and conduct a detail investigation and take suitable further action based on the investigation report
61. Accordingly, the second respondent/Vigi/ance Department is directed to forthwith register a case on the information shared by the Enforcement Directorate on 27.10.2025 under Section 66(2) of the Act and conduct a detailed expeditious investigation into the matter and proceed further in accordance to law.
5. Even after this clear direction, if you fail to register a FIR, it indicates that the vigilance department is in tandem with the accused and it has acted mischievously and failed to perform its function. In fine, it has become dysfunctional and muted by the powers in office. Our client, as a member of the Parliament, has to a duty to the people of this country and to the Tamils, in particular. My client reiterates that if on the receipt of notice, action is not triggered to register the FIR and communicate the same in a manner known to law, our client will not only hesitate to hold you in contempt, but ensure appropriate action against a Civil servant is initiated for breaching the law as well as the orders of the High court.
6. As an officer belonging to civil services, you are not expected to abide by the words of the Minister or identify with any political party. You should know that the direction issued by the Hon’ble High Court is supreme and deserves to be implemented without dilution. You would have seen that the High Court was considering entrustment of investigation to a specialized agency, and yet, it gave you an opportunity to redeem the status of the Vigilance
Department functioning in the State of Tamil Nadu to act.

7. If the department continues to be dysfunctional even after the orders of the High court, then it is nothing short of abetting the accused and the very purpose of a department to be a vigilance cell loses all relevance. By this notice, we make it clear that if you persist in acting against the Rule of Law, our client will have no option than to request the Court to change the investigating agency to CBI or such other competent body in the best interest of the public and to SAVE the RULE OF LAW in Tamil Nadu and from the present ruling dispensation.
