Charges framed in 12-yr-old corruption case
Chandigarh, September 28 The court of Additional District and Sessions Judge SS Sahni framed the charges against Mohan Lal and Surinder Kumar Saini, clerk and development assistant of the Chandigarh Housing Board, and a Delhi resident, Tarsem Lal Verma. In 2001, the case was registered by the Vigilance Cell of the UT police after Gandherv Sain, a resident of Khuda Lahora, complained to the police that an imposter was residing in the house allotted to him by the CHB in 1982 under the Rural Housing Scheme, and he was the actual allottee. Investigations proved Sain's allegations true and the police booked Tarsem Lal as accused in the case for forging documents. The case was initially marked as untraced as the police failed to gather further clues and could not even track the imposter who was residing in place of Sain. After the police filed the cancellation report, the court of the then Additional and District Judge Raj Rahul Garg rejected the cancellation report and ordered it to be reopened in 2008. On the re-investigation of the case, the UT police stumbled upon Tarsem and arrested him from Delhi in 2010. Tarsem is now 63-year-old and was employed in the Ministry of Defence's Film and Photo Division.
