New Delhi, February 23
Samajwadi Party MP Amar Singh today moved an application in the Supreme Court in an apparent by bid to restrain TV media from playing the CDs of his so-called taped conversation.
Mr Amar Singh moved an application as part of his writ petition, pending before the court, which had already issued notices to the Centre, the Delhi Government and the city Police on it earlier.
The application was moved by him in view of various TV channels claiming that they had access to the CDs containing his alleged conversation with various film stars and others.
The application, sought a direction to the Uttar Pradesh police to probe how the CDs, which were supposed to be in the custody of the Delhi Police, had landed in the hands of various TV channels.
Virtually accusing the Delhi Police of supplying the CDs to the media, the SP leader said the apprehension was “obvious” as those were confiscated by it as part of the case diary.
Mr Amar Singh in his writ petition had sought judicial probe into the tapping of his telephone.
His counsel said efforts would be made to ensure that the matter was listed for hearing tomorrow.
The Delhi Police and UP Police had registered separate FIRs with regard to the tapping of his telephone and were virtually at loggerheads on the issue of the probe, whey they accused each other of encroaching on their jurisdiction.
