Recommends investigation against chief secretary, divisional commissioner DM SW)
DELHI Vigilance Minister Atishi has written to the directors of the ED and the CBI recommending an investigation into the alleged involvement of Chief Secretary Naresh Kumar, DM South-West Delhi, Hemant Kumar, and Divisional Commissioner Ashwani Kumar, regarding alleged irregularities in the Dwarka Expressway land compensation award, sources said on Thursday.
The Vigilance Minister mentioned that after the preliminary investigation by the Department of Vigilance, it appeared that in view of the scale of the alleged corruption and prima facie establishment of the abuse of authority by the concerned officials, the case should come under the purview of CBI’s Prevention of Corruption Act 1988.
93% of payment of the land purchased by the beneficiaries may have been done in cash which might involve money laundering as well, making it a case fit for investigation by the ED, sources said.
