CBI’s double standards to the fore


CBI officials may say that they are working independently and don’t have any pressure from any of their higher authorities or their political bosses. However hard they may try to convince, people will not believe them because they have earned such notorious reputation it will be hard for them to come out of it so easily. This is proven time and again when they conveniently try to bail out tainted people without providing key and crucial information like in Quottrochi bail in bofors case or in disproportionate assets cases on Mayawathi, Mulayalam Singh and others.
 
Many feel the same is happening in Jagan’s case and the 26 GOs issued by the then YSR Govt. CBI sent Minister Mopidevi  Venkataramana packing to chanchalguda jail in 26 Gos case though he claimed innocence saying the decision is not in his individual capacity but entire cabinet is responsible. However yesterday CBI did not follow the same rule in case of Dharmana to whom it served notices regarding same Gos. Dharmana Prasada Rao argued in the same manner as that of Mopidevi but to everyone’s shock CBI court granted bail with in seconds and CBI lawyers did not even oppose it.
 
This made Mopidevi supporters furious and they allege discrimination as their leader hails from BC community. Wonder what CBI and Cong bosses got to say.
