2G case: CBI moves Delhi HC against A. Raja, Kanimozhi acquittals

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Tuesday March 20,2018 filed an appeal in the Delhi high court, challenging a December 2017 order by a special CBI court that acquitted all the accused in the 2G spectrum allocation case.

The investigating agency’s move comes a day after the Enforcement Directorate (ED) approached the high court challenging the acquittal of former telecom minister A. Raja, Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) chief M. Karunanidhi’s daughter Kanimozhi and 15 others in the 2009 case

On Tuesday, CBI issued a statement saying that the agency “filed an appeal relating to the 2G scam in the Delhi high court. The judgement of trial court (Delhi) was examined legally and it was found that there are strong grounds for an appeal”.
