Can't allow fresh CBI witnesses in 2G, Reliance Telecom tells SC


New Delhi, July 29 (IANS): Reliance Telecom Monday told the Supreme Court that the trial court for 2G cases could not have given a nod to the CBI to line up fresh witnesses to cover up the lacunae in its case, thereby sending for a toss more than two years of proceedings held so far.

"This is nothing more than a helping hand that 2G court has given to the prosecution which has done a shoddy job," senior counsel Mukul Rohatgi told the apex court bench of Justice G.S. Singhvi and Justice K.S. Radhakrishnan.

A parallel investigation was going in the trial's final leg, Rohatgi told the apex court saying that the "rights of the accused are paramount. My right under Article 21 of the constitution is much higher than that of the prosecution".
