New Delhi, Oct 27 (IBNS): The Centre is likely to reveal the names of three persons before the Supreme Court on Monday who allegedly stashed black money in foreign accounts, media reports said.

The names will be part of an affidavit filed by the government. Sources said such more names would be revealed when prosecution in the case begins.

Based on a petition filed by noted lawyer Ram Jethmalani, the Apex Court set up a special committee to look at how to recover black money.

The Centre, however, had told the top court that it could not reveal the names received from other countries as it would violate the tax treaties with those countries, sources said.
