New Delhi, Jan 4 (PTI) The CBI today pleaded before a Delhi court that the ruling of Income Tax Appellate Tribunal in Bofors pay offs case is “nothing new” and its application for withdrawing the proceedings against Italian businessman Ottavio Quattrocchi should be allowed.
Additional Solicitor General P P Malhotra, appearing for CBI, said that the findings of ITAT had been mentioned in a chargesheet filed by it in the over two-decade-old Bofors case.
“I am not disputing what the tribunal has said. That is the case of prosecutor (CBI) also and it is mentioned in the chargesheet. There is nothing new,” Malhotra told Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Vinod Yadav.
He further said that the court should decide CBI’s plea for withdrawing the case without going into its merits and that it should only consider whether the application has been filed bonafide or not.
