CBI gets AP go-ahead for attaching Jagan's firms

May 18, 2012 22:04

The noose tightened further around Kadapa MP YS Jaganmohan Reddy in the disproportionate assets case with Andhra Pradesh government giving permission to the CBI on Friday to attach properties of three firms he promoted.

The state government issued three separate orders on Friday evening giving permission to CBI to attach the properties of Jagati Publications, Indira Television and Janani Infrastructure Company promoted and owned by Jagan.

The attachment process, however, will take six months to be completed as CBI has to first identify the properties and then file a detailed petition in the special court, informed sources said.

The state government, in response to a plea by CBI a few days ago, obtained legal opinion before granting the permission for attachment of Jagan's properties, the sources added.

An administrator would be appointed to oversee the properties (to be attached) and prevent any type of transactions of them, the sources said.
