A.K. Bassi, who was investigating the Special Director, wants his transfer quashed
Ajay Kumar Bassi, the CBI officer who probed corruption allegations against the agency’s Special Director, R.K. Asthana, before he was removed from the case, approached the Supreme Court on Tuesday with a plea to set up a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to investigate the case.
‘Mala fide move’
Mr. Bassi said his transfer on October 24 was a mala fide move. Asking the court to quash his transfer, Mr. Bassi alleged that it was a ploy to derail the investigation in a highly sensitive case.
He asked the court to direct the CBI to produce the evidence collected so far in a sealed cover.
