2G case: Court slams CBI |
A special 2G court has discharged former telecom secretary Shyamal Ghosh and three telecom firms in the 2002 additional spectrum allocation case, saying that the charge-sheet was "full of distorted and fabricated facts" and that the agency has tried to "mislead" thecourt.Coming down heavily on CBI. The court said that the charge-sheet was based on "deliberately redacted and garbled facts" and it was drafted in a manner to create an impression that a grave crime was committed, whereas there was none and there was "noincriminating material on record" against the accused.The court said that CBI had "deliberately" not produced many relevant documents before it only to indicate that demand for additional spectrum started only after late Pramod Mahajan had joined as the telecom minister in 2001."
