Probe team investigating ex-CBI Director Ranjit Sinha seeks his visitors' diary
New Delhi, Sept 30 (IBNS) The Supreme Court-appointed investigating team has sought a copy of the original visitors' diary from the official residence of former CBI director Ranjit Sinha in connection with the 2G scam case against him, reports said.
The probe team led by ex-CBI Special Director M L Sharma moved the top court seeking the book allegedly containing names of people who had visited Sinha.
A three-judge bench headed by Justice Madan B Lokur, referred the plea of the special probe team to another bench.
The bench headed by Chief Justice of India (CJI) ML Dattu has been monitoring cases relating to the 2G scam and had earlier ordered that the visitors diary, given by Bhushan on behalf of NGO Common Cause, be kept in a sealed cover.
Now the plea filed by the special probe team would be heard by the CJI's bench on Monday.
The diary allegedly contains names of persons, including those who are facing court cases in the 2G and coalgate scams, who had visited official residence of Ranjit Sinha during his tenure as the CBI Director.
The top court had on September 14, given M L Sharma the power to summon any person in his inquiry against Mr Sinha, accused of scuttling probe in the coal block scam as the agency's chief.
