CBI will question SP leader Amar Singh’s aide,who is suspected to have distributed forged documents purportedly showing an agency official giving opinion that Samajwadi Party supremo Mulayam Singh Yadav had been framed in the disproportionate assets case.
Sources in the agency said that the close aide of Amar Singh,who is a lawyer by profession,will be called to the CBI headquarters soon for questioning after the agency got evidence that the documents,circulated in media,had been handed out by him.
CBI,which has already registered a case for the alleged forging of CBI documents,will also record the statements of two journalists who had brought out the report in newspaper and television.
The agency has already approached the Press Council of India claiming that the report was bogus.
Earlier,it had registered a case against unknown persons after a report appeared in media citing the 17-page internal note which claimed that the agency officials,including Deputy Inspector General Tillottama Varma,was of the opinion that Yadav had been framed up in the case.
The case had been registered under sections of criminal conspiracy,forgery and presenting forged documents as genuine.
CBI Director Ashwani Kumar has already termed the report as false,fabricated and forged.
