A Special Court in Delhi directed the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to further investigate an alleged scam in coal block allocation, involving Rajya Sabha MP Vijay Darda.

Special CBI Judge Bharat Parashar asked the CBI to file a progress report of its probe by December 19.

The CBI had filed its closure report in the case in which it had earlier registered a first information report (FIR) against JLD Yavatmal Energy Limited, its directors Vijay Darda, his son Devendra Darda, Rajendra Darda, Manoj Jayaswal, Anand Jayaswal and Abhishek Jayaswal and other unknown persons.

The FIR was filed under Sections 420 (Cheating) and 120B (Criminal Conspiracy) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).
