Qureshi’s wife seeks legible documents from I-T dept

Businessman Moin Akhtar Qureshi’s wife on Thursday told a Delhi court that she had not yet received some legible documents from the Income Tax (I-T) Department in a case, in which she is accused of giving false information about her foreign bank accounts.

The Department’s advocate, however, informed the court that they have already supplied legible documents to accused Nasreen Moin Qureshi and showed the receiving copy.

The court had earlier asked the counsel for the I-T Department to supply the deficit documents to the accused.

Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Pritam Singh has fixed February 19 for the scrutiny of the documents and asked the defence counsel to inform it on that day if he has received the required papers.

Nasreen was granted bail by the court on January. Qureshi is also facing prosecution in a black money case for allegedly not disclosing an income of nearly Rs 20 crore. The court had earlier summoned Nasreen as an accused in the case after taking cognisance of a complaint filed by the I-T Department under the IT Act and the Indian Penal Code (IPC).
