New Delhi: The CBI has registered a fresh corruption case against former income tax additional commissioner Santosh Karnani for allegedly sharing confidential information with a builder to help him win a case in the IT Appellate Tribunal in return for land at a heavily discounted price, officials said Thursday.
The CBI got information about the alleged corruption from forensic examination of Ahmedabad-based Karnani’s phones that he had allegedly given to his co-accused
Vivek Johri for disposing them of during a Gujarat Anti-Corruption Bureau’s trap
operation, according to an
FIR.
