  Ahead of submitting its report to the Supreme Court in the second generation mobile spectrum allocation scam, the CBI today questioned former telecom commission member K Sridhar in connection with the allocation of spectrum in 2007-08.
Sridhar came to the agency''s headquarters here and was quizzed about his role in the spectrum allocation, sources said.
Though officials were tight-lipped about the line of questioning, the sources said, he was asked about certain policy decisions that were taken during his tenure.
Former telecom minister A Raja and two other senior officials have already been arrested in connection with the scam.
Raja, his former personal secretary RK Chandolia and former telecom secretary Siddartha Behura were arrested for allegedly abusing their official position and manipulating the tendering procedures to benefit certain telecom companies in getting the spectrum.. The Supreme Court has asked CBI and Enforcement Directorate (ED) to submit status reports on theirinvestigations into the 2G spectrum case to it by February 10 when the case will come up for further hearing. |
