PIL in Allahabad high court for supervising probe against Salman Khurshid's trust

Written By Unknown on Senin, 15 Oktober 2012 | 17.34

LUCKNOW: A public interest litigation (PIL) was filed in the Lucknow bench of the Allahabad high court on Monday requesting the court to supervise the inquiry being done by the economic offence wing (EOW) of the Uttar Pradesh (UP) police into the alleged anomalies in the working of a trust headed by union law minister Salman Khurshid.

The PIL has been filed by social activist Nutan Thakur in which she has demanded registration of a case on the basis of the charges levelled against the Zakir Hussain Trust run by Khurshid and his wife Louise. In the PIL, Thakur expressed doubt over free and fair inquiry into the allegations under present political circumstances, hence she has asked the court to supervise the probe. The PIL admitted and will be heard on October 17.

The PIL was filed even as the EOW began its probe into the alleged misappropriation of funds by Dr. Zakir Hussain Memorial Trust. The agency has started collecting documents at various levels, including state, divisional and district headquarters as a part of the investigation. Four teams, three under the Kanpur sector and one under the Meerut sector, have been constituted for probe in 17 districts where irregularities are suspected. Significantly, the order of probe was issued on July 3 but EOW has reacted now when the matter has snowballed into huge controversy.

Meanwhile, Uttar Pradesh chief minister Akhilesh Yadav hit out at India Against Corruption (IAC) activist Arvind Kejriwal for raising questions over a free and fair probe into the case.

"So, how can we comment before the investigations are complete, and how can one say the inquiry is fair or not before the report is made public?" Akhilesh Yadav said.

He said that the investigation in connection with this case began when the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) government was in power in the state and SP government has continued the inquiry.
