A Raja, former Telecom Minister and prime accused in 2G spectrum scam, today took a dig at CBI in a Delhi court by saying that day by day the case of the agency was getting weak.
The remark was made by the DMK MP when some advocates appearing for the other accused raised objections to the inaudible arguments advanced by Special Public Prosecutor UU Lalit before Special CBI Judge OP Saini.
When advocate DP Singh, appearing for telecom company Unitech Wireless, asked Lalit to make submission in a manner so that they can hear it, Raja took the opportunity to make the comment against CBI.
"It is because day by day their case is going weak," Raja said.
Singh interrupted the proceedings on the ground that the submission made by Lalit was inaudible and said "Mr Lalit, at least yesterday you were a bit louder. Now, your voice is going low."
Senior advocate Majid Memon, appearing for Swan Telecom promotor Shahid Balwa, had also raised objection twice while requesting the judge to make a provision for microphone by Monday.
