2G Case: CBI Records Jaswant Singh's Statement


New Delhi, Sep 24 (IANS): The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has recorded former finance minister Jaswant Singh's statement in connection with the 2G spectrum case, an official said Saturday.

"We have completed recording his statement this week," said a CBI official, who did not wish to be named.

Singh was examined over alleged wrongdoings in the communications ministry in the Bharatiya Janata Party-led National Democratic Alliance government.

Singh headed the empowered group of ministers (EGOM) when Arun Shourie was the communications minister between 2003 and 2004.

According to CBI, its probe was broadly in four parts, dealing with the tenures of ministers Pramod Mahajan (2002-03), Arun shourie (2003-04), Dayanidhi Maran (2004-07) and A. Raja (2007-10). There are varying degrees of alleged wrongdoing.

Despite little evidence of lapses during Shourie's tenure at the ministry, there are variations in the policy and its implementation during Pramod Mahajan's tenure, which is being further investigated.
