Snubbing the Centre for revealing the identity of only a few foreign bank account holders in the first tranche with regard to the black money issue, Shiv Sena today credited the Supreme Court with bringing out these names in public domain.

"Black money was made a major issue during the Lok Sabha elections (of 2014). The government will not understand how difficult it is to bring back the black money stashed abroad. The Centre has only revealed three names, but the credit for that will go only to the Supreme Court," the Sena said in an editorial in its mouthpiece 'Saamana'.

The names of Dabur group promoter Pradip Burman, Rajkot-based bullion dealer Pankaj Chimanlal Lodhiya, Goa-based mining company Timblo Private Limited and its five directors figured in the affidavit filed in the apex court on Monday by the Centre as a part of its drive to unearth blackmoney abroad.

Describing the names revealed so far as only a 'tip of the iceberg', Sena said the real black money still lies hidden in foreign banks.
