Click to play videoNew Delhi: Former chief minister of Punjab Capt Amrinder Singh might be heading for serious trouble over the Ludhiana City Centre scam.
Punjab's Vigilance Department claims it's found solid evidence to chargesheet Amrinder and his family members.
The police are in custody with a few cheques that show transactions between former Punjab chief minister Captain Amarinder Singh's son-in-law Gurpal Singh and a Delhi based businessman.
It’s the paper trail that Punjab's vigilance department claims will nail the former chief minister and his family on corruption charges. The department says it has traced over Rs 21 crore of the over Rs 100 crore bribe allegedly paid to Amarinder and his family in the Ludhiana City Centre scam.
The captain has consistently denied the allegations and said all the documents recovered from Gupta are forged.
The Vigilance sources say that the cheques prove the documents are not forged, since the figures and dates on both of them tally. But Amrinder denies any links.
“I gave all the information that they were asking me and yet they are not satisfied. They are never going to be satisfied until I say what they want to hear,” said Amarinder Singh.
However, cries of political vendetta have been getting louder in Punjab after former DGP Virk's arrest. These are charges that the ruling Akalis deny. CNN-IBN has learnt that Punjab's Vigilance department has completed all its documents-based investigations to charge former Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh several sections of the Prevention of Corruption Act.
The chargesheet will be presented in court in the middle of October.
