A special CBI court today issued letters rogatory to the competent authorities of United Kingdom, Switzerland, Singapore, United Arab Emirates and British Virgin Island in connection with probe into the Rs 3,6000-crore VVIP helicopter deal scam.
The order came after CBI moved the court seeking issuance of LRs to these five countries for its probe and collection of documents in the case in which retired Air Chief Marshal S P Tyagi and various others were named as accused in the FIR.
"Heard. Let the LR be issued to the competent authority, Switzerland....for obtaining original/authenticated documents as given in annexure III and recording statements of witnesses / persons as mentioned in annexure IV of the application," Special CBI Judge Madhu Jain said.
