Srilakshmi moves SC, CBI files caveat

Tainted Ias Officer Y Srilakshmi on Wednesday filed a petition in the Supreme Court seeking cancellation of orders of the Andhra Pradesh High Court suspending her bail in the illegal mining case even as CBI filed a caveat to preempt her move.   

Srilakshmi filed the petition in the apex court challenging the High Court order of suspending of her bail plea.

In her special leave petition, she contended that the CBI apprehensions that she would influence witnesses if released on bail were not true. She assured the court that she would cooperate fully to the probing agency during the investigations.

Meanwhile, the CBI has filed caveat petition in the Supreme Court on Sri Lakshmi’s bail.

CBI Joint Director V V Laxminarayana has said that the Agency would file the supplementary charge sheet in the illegal mining case in the next 20 days.

It was seeking the Centre’s permission to include Srilakshmi’s name in the supplementary charge sheet.
