2G Spectrum: Delhi HC grants additional time to Raja, Kanimozhi to file reply on CBI plea

The Delhi High Court on Friday (August 10) granted additional time to former Telecom Minister A Raja, DMK MP Kanimozhi and others to submit their response on the CBI’s plea challenging their acquittal by a special court in the 2G spectrum case.

The single-judge bench of Justice Najmi Waziri was hearing the CBI’s plea challenging a special court’s order acquitting Raja, Kanimozhi and others in the 2G spectrum case.

The bench listed the matter for next hearing to October 9.

The special court on December 21, 2017 had acquitted all accused in the 2G spectrum allocation case. Special judge OP Saini while announcing the judgement had said that ED and CBI failed to provide sufficient evidence to prove the charges against 33 persons named in the case.
