AIADMK leader and opposition leader J Jayalalithaa has said that it was  Union information technology and communications Minister A Raja who has threatened the Madras HC judge in connection with the marks forgery case.

Earlier on Tuesday the judge has informed before the court that a Union Minister has tried to influence him to to grant anticipatory bail for the father son duo who were arrested by the CBI for forging marksheets.

Though the judge did not disclose the minister's identity, Jayalalitha claimed that there were enough evidence to support the Union Minister's link with the duo involved. The incident has created a controversy with the entire opposition staging a walkout in the Assembly.
