New Delhi (PTI): The Delhi High Court on Friday vacated its stay on proceedings initiated by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) against former External Affairs Minister Natwar Singh and his son Jagat Singh for alleged foreign exchange violations in the Iraqi oil-for-food scam.
Directing them to appear before the ED on April 24, a bench comprising Justice T S Thakur and Justice Kailash Gambhir also rejected the father-son duo's plea seeking copies of all the documents, related to the scam, available with the government.
The Court was hearing their petition challenging an order by a single judge bench which rejected their plea seeking copies of all the documents related to the scam.
The Court on August 6 last year had reserved its order on the petition after hearing both the sides.
The ED had in September 2006 issued show-cause notices to the former minister and his son along with four others for alleged violation of Foreign Exchange Management Act in the scam. THE HINDU; Friday, March 28, 2008
