Delhi High Court Orders Proceedings Against Six CBI Officers for False Court Statements
The Delhi High Court has ordered criminal proceedings against six CBI officers for allegedly submitting false statements in court regarding correspondence with the government about a disproportionate assets case involving former IRS officer Ashok Kumar Aggarwal. The court found that the officials misrepresented ongoing discussions with the law ministry to oppose the release of seized documents. The High Court overturned a lower court's refusal to initiate perjury proceedings and directed a magisterial inquiry and complaint filing against the officers.
