BJP slams Centre

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Tuesday attacked the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government over the revelations that the chief prosecutor of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in the 2G spectrum case had allegedly discussed prosecution strategy with one of the accused.

The party demanded a probe.

The CBI on Monday removed AK Singh, its chief prosecutor in the 2G spectrum case, after he was allegedly found to have discussed the prosecution strategy with one of the accused. The CBI possesses an audio recording with the suspected voices of Singh and one of the accused.

BJP spokesperson Prakash Javadekar said that the revelations were absolutely atrocious and accused the Congress-led UPA government of misusing the CBI.’ The pattern of cover up by Congress on all corruption and scam cases is now in the open.Sometimes they use the investigating wing and on other occasions they use prosecution wing,’ said Javadekar.
