A division bench of justices N. Paul Vasantha Kumar and P Devadass dismissed the petition observing that the alleged statement was made in Madurantakam, which fell under the Madras High Court's jurisdiction and not under the jurisdiction of its bench here.
The judges also declined the request of the petitioner's counsel to transfer the case to the Madras High Court.
The petitioner, C. Ramesh, an advocate, submitted that the Union Minister had allegedly made derogatory comments against Prabhakaran and Seeman during a meeting at Puducherry in April.
