Ref: http://indiatoday.intoday.in/story/mdmk-chief-vaiko-seeks-bail-in-sedition-case/1/960935.html
MDMK chief Vaiko, who is in jail since April 3 in an eight-year-old sedition case, today moved a court here seeking bail.

The case is likely to come up for hearing in the principal sessions court here tomorrow.

Police had registered a case under IPC section related to sedition against Vaiko for a speech he made while releasing his book "Naan Kutram Sattugiren,"(I am Making the Accusation) in 2009.

Subsequently, a charge sheet was filed in 2010.
However, a trial is yet to commence in the case.
