Supreme Court Inclined to Quash Money Laundering Case in Chhattisgarh Liquor Policy Scam
यह देखते हुए कि कोई offence और अपराध की आय नहीं है, Supreme Court ने Friday (5 April) को Alleged Chhattisgarh Liquor Policy Scam के Relation में कुछ Accused के Against Money Laundering Case को रद्द करने की इच्छा व्यक्त की।
Justice Abhay S Oka और Justice Ujjal Bhuyan की Bench IAS Officer Atul Tuteja और उनके बेटे Yash Tuteja सहित Case के 6 Accused द्वारा File Writ Petition पर Hearing कर रही थी।
इससे पहले, Petitioner के इस तर्क पर ध्यान देने के बाद कि ED का Case Income Tax Act के कथित Voilation पर Based था, जो Prevention of Money Laundering Act(PMLA) के तहत एक Scheduled Offence नहीं है, , Court ने Petitioner के Against Proceeding पर रोक लगा दी थी।
आज, शुरुआत में, Justice Oka ने टिप्पणी की कि ” Complaint पर विचार नहीं किया जा सकता” क्योंकि कोई Predicate Offence नहीं था।
इस पर, ASG Raju ने जवाब दिया कि Petitioner के Against एक नया Predicate Offence Register किया गया था, जिसके Base पर ED द्वारा एक अलग ECIR (Enforcement Case Information Report) File की जाएगी।
Justice Oka ने ASG से पूछा, “क्या आपने ऐसा किया है?”
ASG ने जवाब दिया कि बाद के Predicate Offence पर रोक के कारण, नई Complaint लागू नहीं हो सकी।
ASG ने जो कहा, उसे जारी रखते हुए, Justice Oka ने कहा कि Case में Challenge Accused के Against Pending वर्तमान Complaint से Related है।
“Complaint जाने दो। जहां तक इस Case का सवाल है, इसमें कोई पूर्व निर्धारित Offence नहीं है, इसलिए Crime की कोई Proceed नहीं हो सकती है, और इसलिए Complaint को रद्द करने की जरूरत है।”, Justice Oka ने ASG को बताया।

Justice Oka ने ASG को बताया, “बस इसे Verify करें, इसलिए हम ऐसा करेंगे, अगर कोई Offence नहीं है तो Complaint को रद्द कर दिया जाएगा, और आपका (ED) Statement Record किया जाएगा।”
ASG द्वारा किए गए अनुरोध पर, Matter 8 April, 2024 को Next Post किया जाएगा।
