Delete ‘scurrilous’ allegations against Modi, says SC
18 Jan 2014 5:42 AM IST
The Supreme Court said on Friday that it will look into the plea for CBI probe into Gujarat’s snooping controversy only after verifying that suspended IAS officer Pradeep Sharma complied with its order to delete ‘scurrilous’ allegations against chief minister Narendra Modi.
Sharma, who has sought probe into the snoopgate, faced stiff opposition from the Gujarat government, which also slapped several other cases on him including one for attempting to flee the country on fake passport.
The apex court, which also refused Sharma’s plea to allow him to travel to the United States to meet his wife and son, who are American citizens, said his application for CBI probe into snoopgate can only be considered after examining that he has complied with its 12 May, 2011 order.
