The Central Bureau of Investigation is likely to file its second chargesheet in the 2G spectrum allocation scam on Monday.

The chargesheet to be filed in the court of Special CBI Judge O P Saini is eagerly awaited as all eyes will be on whether Kanimozhi, DMK chief M Karunanidhi’s daughter and MP, figures in the list of accused after the investigation into the case disclosed that money had travelled from DB Realty to Kalaignar TV.

Kanimozhi, Dayaluammal — Karunanidhi’s wife — and Sharad Kumar, Managing Director of Kalaignar TV, have 20, 60 and 20 per cent shares in the channel, respectively.

 

The CBI had earlier told the court that '200 crore connected with the 2G spectrum scam had travelled from a partnership firm of Swan Telecom Promoter Shahid Usman Balwa to Kalaignar TV.

The agency had said the money travelled through a “circuitous route” through Kusegaon Fruits and Vegetables, a DB group company and Cineyug Films.
