In what could be an unexpected shocker to AP’s leader of Opposition YS Jagan Mohan Reddy, the Central Bureau of Investigation has appealed to the CBI special court to cancel the bail of YS Jagan who is accused in the Disproportionate Assets case.
In its petition, the CBI has cited that the Jagan is trying to ‘influence’ the witnesses in the most crucial case and hence asked the court to cancel the bail it granted him.
The CBI court has accepted the petition and ordered Jagan to file a counter before 7 April, 2017.
This comes in the wake of the Election Commission’s recent statement to the Supreme Court that it is in favour of banning the criminals entering legislature for lifetime.
It can be noted that the special CBI court had granted conditional bail to YS Jagan in Sep 2013 after spending 16 months in jail. Jagan was arrested in May 2012 in the alleged DA case when he was the Member of the Parliament. The CBI has listed Jagan as A-1 and accused him of indulging in quid-pro-quo.
Following the directions from AP High Court in 2011, FIR was first registered against Jagan in Aug 2011 by the CBI. On the court’s directions, the CBI had done a thorough investigation and registered 10 chargesheets against Jagan.
