Submitted all versions of coal scam report to SC, says CBI

The investigating agency, looking into alleged irregularities in the allocation of coal blocks, has submitted an affidavit along with relevant annexures explaining the changes made in its status report to the apex court on Friday, the CBI spokesperson said.

The CBI is believed to have submitted in its status report contents of its original investigation details along with the changes made in them before the Supreme Court which will hear the case tomorrow.

The investigating agency, looking into alleged irregularities in the allocation of coal blocks, has submitted an affidavit along with relevant annexures explaining the changes made in its status report to the apex court on Friday, the CBI spokesperson said.

She, however, declined to divulge details of the second status report filed by the CBI. The agency has filed its first status report on 8 March.

CBI Director Ranjit Sinha has admitted before the SC that its status report on the coal blocks probe was shared with Law Minister Ashwani Kumar and joint secretary level officers in PMO and Coal Ministry. The admission triggered an opposition attack on Manmohan Singh and demands for Law Minister's resignation. The demand was rejected.
