A Delhi Court will on Friday take cognizance of the chargesheet filed by Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) against 1988 batch IAS B.L. Agarwal and two others in connection with the Chhattisgarh bribery case.

Earlier in February, the court extended the three-day remand of Agrawal and others in the same case.

Agarwal, along with the other accused, namely Bhagwan Singh and Anand Agarwal, has already spent five days in the CBI custody.

According to the CBI, the fourth accused Syed Burhanuddin, who was caught in Hyderabad is yet to be questioned in presence of the other accused.

The CBI had alleged that prime accused Agarwal was trying to escape the investigation through certain mediators with monetary favours.

 

The mediators have not yet been identified.
