The chargesheet was filed in the special CBI court here against JMM MLA Sita Soren, her father B Majhi, the then Independent candidates and industrialists R K Agarwal and Pawan Kumar Dhoot and Dhoot's agent Sunil Kumar Maheswari and one Rajendra Mandal, CBI officer A K Jha said.
The chargesheet accused the JMM MLA of taking Rs 1.5 crore from Agarwal in lieu of casting her vote in his favour in the scraped 2012 Rajya Sabha elections and that her father allegedly had taken one crore rupees out of the booty before leaving home in Odisha, said Jha.
The chargesheet also accused another independent candidate Dhoot of alluring voters with money if they cast vote in his favour, Jha said quoting the chargesheet.
After countermanding the RS polls for two seats following the seizure of Rs 2.15 crore from a car and the police alleging that it belonged to Agarwal's relative, the ECI conducted the polling afresh.
