Congress has mastered the art of misusing CBI: Jaitley

February 09, 2014 17:12

The BJP today said that the truth about the political misuse of the CBI had now "slipped out" after the comment by CBI Director Ranjit Sinha -- that the UPA government would have been happy had Narendra Modi's aide Amit Shah been chargesheeted in the Ishrat Jahan case.

Although Sinha denied having made the remark, BJP leader Arun Jaitley stepped up the offensive against the Congress-led coalition and said that the government had, in its decade-long rule, "mastered the art of manipulating" CBI.

"Yesterday, a statement by the CBI director was published. The truth slipped out.The denial of the CBI director that he made the statement is immaterial," he said.
