Court slams CBI, issues fresh arrest warrant against Sajjan

Court says CBI not serious in arresting Cong leader

PTI | February 23, 2010



A Delhi court today slammed CBI for "not being serious in apprehending" Congress leader Sajjan Kumar and other accused in 1984 anti-Sikh riots cases and asked its director to personally supervise the process after issuing fresh non-bailable warrants against them.

"So far ground work is concerned, CBI does not seem to be serious enough to apprehend the accused. CBI wants to complete only paper work. These are all stereotype reports," Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Lokesh Kumar Sharma said when the probe agency said that it tried its best to arrest the 64-year politician and others in the case.
