Singh’s nexus with criminal dispensation has just begun.
Amar Singh’s nexus with criminal dispensation has just begun. His imprisonment in the cash-for-vote scam was writ large last month when the Supreme Court (SC) slammed the Delhi police for its inability to trace the source of crores which were exchanged for votes to protect the Manmohan Singh government three years ago.
Judges had scoffed at the probe which never took off until the SC intervened at the behest of former chief election commissioner JM Lyngdoh. While the police felt exalted as they told the court that Singh’s former aide Sanjeev Saxena and alleged BJP activist Suhail Hindustani had been jailed in the scam, the judges asserted that the investigation must be fearless keeping in mind that ‘be ever you so high, the law is above you’’. “You (Delhi Police) have not done what we said earlier’’, Justices Aftab Alam and RM Lodha observed. “Find out the source of money. You can do it, if you want to do it. You are capable of doing so,” judges challenged the police.
Singh had received a setback in April last also when the SC lifted the gag order on the controversial audio tapes in which the former Samajwadi Party leader’s voice could be clearly heard damning his social pals, actors and actress and political mentor. One could hear Singh having conversation about the lawyers - Prashant and Shanti Bhushan—and referring to Allahabad High Court judge who could be helpful in providing relief to Samajwadi Party boss Mulayam Singh. Mulayam and Amar Singh have, however, distanced themselves from each other and the ailing Singh is facing yet another criminal action in the audio tapes case.
In another case, Amar Singh deposed before a trial court in Delhi after many adjournments. He was to depose in a cheating case. In this case too, he reached court ten minutes after it had issued a bailable warrant against him for not presenting himself. Chief metropolitan magistrate Kaweri Baweja later recalled the order.
Meanwhile, after his arrest, former top cop Kiran Bedi tweeted, “poetic justice.”
