Tell Us In 3 Weeks From Where Bribe Money Came, SC Asks Delhi Police

India TV News  

New Delhi, Aug 5: Slamming Delhi police for its clean chit to politicians in cash-for-vote scam and its “half-hearted and hopeless” probe, the Supreme Court today asked the police to take the probe to its logical conclusion and submit a final report in three weeks. A bench of justices Aftab Alam and R M Lodha, while lamenting that a middleman of the “cheapest kind” was allowed to derail parliamentary proceedings, termed the probe conducted so far as “half-hearted, meaningless and hopeless”. You must take it to the logical conclusion.” The bench made the remarks after perusing the preliminary report of Delhi Police which had claimed no political leader was involved in the 2008 scam. Declining to grant 40 days time sought by Delhi Police, the court asked it to submit a final report within three weeks.
