Uttar Pradesh former chief minister of Mulayam Singh Yadav And the Supreme Court has refused to close the disproportionate assets case against the family for the time being. The Supreme Court will hear this case in January, in which the court will decide whether to close the hearing of the case or not.
During the hearing, Kapil Sibal, on behalf of the Yadav family, demanded closure of the hearing of the case. He said that in 2019, the CBI has filed an affidavit saying that it has closed the investigation of the case. Now there is nothing left in the case, while the petitioner Congress leader Vishwanath Chaturvedi opposed it. He said that this is against the CBI manual.
The matter will be heard after the winter vacation
On behalf of Chaturvedi, it was said that the CBI says that it had informed the CVC about the closure of the case, whereas no such information was given. In this whole matter, disturbances were done for political gains. While hearing the case, CJI DY Chandrachud said that Mulayam Singh is no more in the world but there is a case on other family members as well. We will hear the matter in January after the winter vacation.
What did CBI say?
In fact, in April 2019, while giving relief to former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mulayam Singh Yadav and his son Akhilesh Yadav, the CBI had told the Supreme Court that the allegations of disproportionate assets against them could not be proved and it had filed a preliminary inquiry on August 7, 2013. The investigation was closed.
Let me tell you, in the year 2005, Vishwanath Chaturvedi had accused Mulayam Singh Yadav, his son Akhilesh Yadav, daughter-in-law Dimple Yadav, second son Prateek Yadav of acquiring more property and filed a PIL. After this, on March 1, 2007, the Supreme Court ordered the CBI to conduct a preliminary inquiry into the matter. After this, in October the same year, the CBI had told that it had found evidence to register a case. After this, in the year 2012, the Supreme Court had removed Dimple Yadav from the purview of investigation.
