印度水泥有限公司副总裁R Muralidhar作为证人作证，告诉CBI特别法官O P Saini，向该频道支付这笔钱的目的是为了宣传他们的产品，并在IPL期间宣传其CSK特许经营权。
在被执法局检察官N K Matta问及该公司是否向该频道支付了任何款项时，Muralidhar说:“2011年，该公司向Kalaignar电视有限公司支付了6亿卢比。”
在辩护人Vijay Aggarwal的交叉盘问中，Muralidhar表示，印度水泥有限公司与Kalaignar TV Pvt Ltd签订合同，没有犯下任何“非法”行为。Vijay Aggarwal为包括Swan Telecom Pvt Ltd (STPL)发起人Shahid Usman Balwa在内的多名被告出庭。
“签订这样的独立协议是按照商业惯例进行的，这是正确的。通过签订本合同，我公司没有任何违法行为，确切地说我们没有任何违法行为。我们不知道我们根据协议转移的资金将被Kalaignar TV (P) Ltd使用。”
前电信部长A Raja，议员Kanimozhi, DMK领导人M Karunanidhi的妻子Dayalu安马尔在印度，STPL发起人Shahid Usman Balwa和Vinod Goenka以及其他14人，包括9家公司，正面临审判，ED已于4月25日对他们提出指控，指控他们涉嫌违反《防止洗钱法》(PMLA)。
法院于10月31日对19名被告、10名个人和9家公司提出指控，称拉贾涉嫌与Kanimozhi、Dayalu Ammal和其他共同被告勾结，参与在Kalaignar电视台“放置”非法资金20亿卢比。

Deposing as a witness in the case, Vice President of India Cements Ltd R Muralidhar told Special CBI Judge O P Saini that the purpose of paying this amount to the channel was to advertise their products and also publicise its CSK franchise during the IPL.
On being asked by Enforcement Directorate's prosecutor N K Matta whether any payment was made by the firm to the channel, Muralidhar said, \"An amount of Rs 60 crore was paid to Kalaignar TV (P) Limited in 2011.\"
<\/div><\/div>\"This is the first time we have entered into a long-term electronic media contract with Kalaignar TV (P) Limited. We have not entered into long-term contract with any other TV channel,\" he said.
During the cross-examination by advocate Vijay Aggarwal, who appeared for various accused in the case including Swan Telecom Pvt Ltd (STPL) promoter Shahid Usman Balwa, Muralidhar said India Cements Ltd had not committed any \"illegality\" by entering into the contract with Kalaignar TV Pvt Ltd (KTV).
\"It is correct that entering into such stand alone agreements is as per business practice. By entering into this contract, our company has not committed any illegality, rather we have not committed any illegality. We were not aware as to where the funds transferred by us in response to the agreement would be utilized by Kalaignar TV (P) Ltd,\" he said.
Former Telecom Minister A Raja, MP Kanimozhi, DMK leader M Karunanidhi's wife Dayalu Ammal<\/a>, STPL promoters Shahid Usman Balwa and Vinod Goenka and 14 others, including nine firms, are facing trial in the case in which the ED had on April 25 filed a charge sheet against them for alleged offences under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
The court had on October 31 framed charges against the 19 accused, 10 individuals and nine companies, saying that Raja, allegedly in connivance with Kanimozhi, Dayalu Ammal and other co-accused, was involved in \"parking\" of illegal gratification of Rs 200 crore in Kalaignar TV. <\/div><\/div>
