Charges framed against five in Telgi case

Staff Reporter

NEW DELHI: A Delhi court on Tuesday framed charges against a dismissed Delhi police inspector and four others for allegedly accepting bribe from an accused in the multi-crore fake stamp paper case involving Abdul Karim Telgi.

Finding prima facie evidence against Inspector Puran Singh, Head Constable Om Prakash, Constables Ratan Singh and Sanjay and Narender Singh, who allegedly paid the bribe, a Special CBI Judge framed the charges under various sections of the Prevention of Corruption Act.

As per prosecution, Narender, an alleged dealer of fake stamp papers, was arrested on January 5, 2001, by South Delhi police' District Intelligence Unit, led by Inspector Singh, and was lodged at Kalkaji police station.

Later, he was produced before a Delhi court which remanded him to 10-day police custody.

While in police custody, Narender was allowed to go to nearby Corporation Bank from where he withdrew Rs. 8.5 lakhs and paid the money to Inspector Singh.

Om Prakash and two the constables shared the money. In lieu, they helped the accused in getting reprieve in the case.
