The Vigilance Bureau has instituted an enquiry on the basis of a complaint but inspite of repeated requests, the copy of the complaint was not being provided to him, Dhumal claimed, adding the complaint was filed by advocate Vinay Sharma, who had been given the post of Deputy Advocate General in the state government.
Dhumal further claimed that the complainant had neither given any proof nor any affidavitin support of the accusations made by him and wondered how such a complaint could be entertained.
He said a similar complaint was filed against him in Lokayukta in 2009 by an IPS officer, but after probe, the Lokayukta had closed the matter.
He re-iterated his demand for a CBI probe into the complaint and in case any property which had not already been declared by him was found to be seized by the government.
