Dr Talwar
clean: CBI
New Delhi, July 11
Dr Rajesh Talwar was today granted
bail by the special CBI court in Ghaziabad. He was enlarged on bail of
two personal bonds of Rs 5 lakh each. The doors for the bail were paved
open when the CBI told the court that it had no evidence against the
doctor’s involvement in the crime. Addressing a press conference at
the agency headquarters, CBI joint director Arun Kumar said: “We have
no evidence against Dr Rajesh Talwar but we are not giving him clean
chit just yet.”
SC
stays CBI probe against Sumedh Saini
New
Delhi, July 11
In a significant development for
Punjab, the Supreme Court today stayed the investigation by the CBI
against Sumedh Singh Saini, an inspector-general rank officer of the
Punjab cadre. Saini is presently posted as director of the Vigilance
Bureau. The Punjab and Haryana High Court, last week, had ordered the
registration of a case against him. An FIR was registered by the CBI for
the alleged involvement of Saini and other police officials in the fake
encounter of Balwant Singh Multani in December 1991, during the peak of
terrorism in Punjab.
