2G Case : HC Dismisses Plea Against Anil Ambani, Ratan Tata

New Delhi, Nov 23: The Delhi High Court today dismissed a plea seeking a direction to CBI to probe alleged roles of Reliance ADAG chairman Anil Ambani, Tata Group chief Ratan Tata in 2G spectrum allocation scam case, saying the apex court was “seized of the matter”.

“Without going into the merits of the case, we refused to entertain the petition on the ground that the apex court is seized of the matter. The petition is dismissed,” a bench headed by Acting Chief Justice A K Sikri said.

The bench, also comprising Justice Rajiv Sahai Endlaw, refused to comment on the maintainability of the plea of Delhi-based scribe M. Furquan saying “it is a matter of common knowledge that the case is being heard by the special CBI judge on the direction of the Supreme Court.”

The counsel for CBI opposed the scribe’s plea saying the charge sheets have been filed and the trial has already commenced after framing of charges against 17 accused.
