Closing down the investigations on Loop and Swan telecom , the Mauritius Government has agreed to provide CBI information about the shareholding patterns of the companies in the Island nation which allegedly acted as a front for routing money in the 2G spectrum scam.
Highly placed sources in the investigating agency said that the CBI has asked details of Delphi Investments Limited, Murphy Investments Ltd , Capital Global Ltd , Black Lion Ltd , Inditel Holdings , Deccan Asian Infrastructure , Aidetel Holding, Kaif Investments , Electro Investments Ltd and Palab investments for their alleged role in the 2G scam.
They had claimed that the companies named in the judicial requests made under relevant Sections of ''Mutual Assistance in Criminal and Related Matters Act 2003', were part of criminal conspiracy with Swan and Loop telecom linked with Reliance Telecom and Essar group respectively to illegally route and access the spectrum.
However, Essar maintained that Loop was not the part of its group.
"The Mauritius Supreme Court permitted our request and passed an order on all the parties which are custodian of information including Registrar of Companies, fund managers and private companies," a CBI official said. |
