New Delhi: The Supreme Court is set to take up Janata Party President Subramanian Swamy's plea challenging a trial court order in the 2G scam. The lower court had dismissed the Janta Party chief's case against Home Minister P Chidambaram in the scam. Swamy has been demanding a CBI probe against Chidambaram and wants him to be made a co-accused.
Swamy had alleged that Chidambaram was equally culpable like former Telecom Minister A Raja as he also had a role in deciding the spectrum pricing and allowing telecom companies to off-load shares to foreign firms.
However, his appeal was dismissed as the trial court felt that he was unable to prove criminality on the part of Chidambaram, the then finance minister, Swamy said.
He maintained that he can prove this criminality only when Chidambaran is forced to undergo a cross-examination.
