New Delhi: The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI)is widening the net in the 2G spectrum scam case. The investigating agency on Tuesday questioned Unitech Managing Director Sanjay Chandra and co-promoter of DB Realty Vinod Goenka in connection with the 2G case.
Sanjay Chandra said that Unitech has nothing to hide and that the company has cooperated with the investigating agencies. "Our officers have provided all records for examination," said Chandra.
Two senior officials of Tata Realty - Sanjay Ubale and Kishore Saletore - have also been questioned in connection with the scam.
Unitech, which was allotted 2G licences for 22 circles for Rs 1658 crore, sold 60 per cent of its shares to Telenor of Norway for Rs 6,100 crore even before the rollout causing a loss to the exchequer.
DB Realty promoter Shahid Usman Balwa has already been arrested over his alleged involvement in the multi-crore scam. According to the CBI, Balwa's company Swan Telecom allegedly got favours in the spectrum allocation and caused the national exchequer a loss of over Rs 22,000 crore.
Former telecom minister A Raja, his personal secretary RK Chandolia and former telecom secretary Siddharth Behuria have also been arrested in the case.
