2G scam: CBI may soon file third charge sheet
TT Correspondent |  |  23 May 2011

In a bid to exhume more evidences, the CBI is planning to file third charge sheet in the 2G spectrum case by first week of July bringing more telecom companies under its scanner.

In a bid to gather more evidences, a joint team of the CBI and the Enforcement Directorate (ED) left for Mauritius on Sunday evening. During investigations, the probe agencies have learnt that couple of corporate houses, who had substantial stakes in other telecom operators in India, were also holding stakes through Mauritius-based companies. As many as 10 different entities named in connection with the 2G scam have
a common address — The Les Cascades Building on the Edith Cavell Street in Port Louis.

Moreover, CBI has sought information on about a dozen of companies, who has stakes in Indian telecom companies, but had a common address of a building in Port Louis, capital of Mauritius.

Hinting that none of the corporate honchos have been given clean chit, a top CBI official said. “Every one is still in our ambit of investigation. Probe is still on. And if our team gets required information from Mauritius, some top corporate houses would be in the dock. The next charge sheet will have some new names.”

“Our team would be back by mid of June,” the CBI official added. So, a fourth, possibly the last charge sheet would be filed by August.
