Stamp scam: Telgi writing 'confessional statement'
Sunday, May 15 2005 20:03 Hrs (IST) - World Time -

New Delhi: Fake stamp paper scam kingpin Abdul Karim Telgi, lodged in judicial custody, is understood to be writing a "confessional statement" even as CBI was all set to file a chargesheet in a high-profile case involving senior IPS officials.

Highly placed sources in the probe agency told sources in New Delhi that Telgi was nowadays busy writing something, which he claims was his confessional statement.

It was not immediately clear whether he would submit it to the agency or the judge who would be hearing the case.

Spotlight: Mother of All Scams!

The coming to light of the scam saw so many heads roll earlier when the then Deputy Chief Minister Chaggan Bhujbal and the then Mumbai Police Commissioner R S Sharma had to quit their posts. Sharma was subsequently arrested.

The sources said Telgi had also given up the hope that he would ever be out of the bars and he, therefore, had decided to write a "confessional statement."

Meanwhile, the CBI is finalising the chargesheet in the case involving Telgi and more than five dozen people, which includes Sharma and some other top Mumbai police officials, for whom the agency had already received a sanction for prosecution.
