Advocate I U Khan, appearing for former Outer Delhi MP Sajjan Kumar, told District Judge J R Aryan that the probe agency was "playing a game" with them.
"They (CBI) are deceiving us and a fraud has been played upon us. If this is a game (that) the CBI is playing with us, we are the worst sufferer.
"State has much more responsibility than a common citizen. The CBI cannot play hide and seek with us. They cannot say we allow you to use the documents at a particular stage only and not after that," Khan argued.
Khan was arguing on Kumar's plea questioning the CBI's vacillating stand on using complainant and crucial witness Jagdish Kaur's affidavits and statements to various judicial commissions, which probed the 1984 riot cases, in prosecuting the case.
In his application, Kumar had said the CBI had earlier brought on record and even examined Kaur's affidavit and statement to the judicial commissions, but it now says that it is not relying on them.
Sajjan Kumar had added that prosecutor R S Cheema had on July 12, 2010 made a statement to the court that affidavits of the witness in the case cannot be used due to contradictions. (MORE)
