The 2008 theft at its headquarters continues to haunt the BJP. Now on the basis of an anonymous letter,a Delhi court has ordered the police to inquire into certain allegations levelled against partys headquarters in-charge Shyam Jaju.
The case relates to the arrest of a person in January for snooping on the details of Jajus bank accounts,which many in the party circle felt had a connection with the Rs 2.6 crore theft from the BJP headquarters. Chandan Kumar Jha was arrested when he approached a branch of the Andhra Bank with forged PAN cards in Jajus name. The trial in that forgery case took a fresh turn when Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Ajay Pandey received an anonymous letter levelling certain allegations against Jaju. BJP sources said the allegations relate to Jajus bank accounts and property. Jaju,however,denied all the charges.
