The Delhi High Court today sought responses from former Telecom Minister Dayanidhi Maran, his brother and industrialist Kalanithi Maran and others on a CBI plea challenging their discharge in the Aircel-Maxis graft case.
Justice I.S Mehta issued the notices on CBI plea against the 2nd February’s order of a special court discharging all the accused in the case. The high court asked the Maran brothers to respond to the plea and fixed the matter for hearing on 29th of August.
Earlier, a special court, while discharging all the accused, had said no prima facie case warranting framing of charges was made out against them on the basis of the material placed on record before it.
