MUMBAI: The Bombay high court on Thursday dismissed two petitions to quash completely or partly an FIR registered by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) against former state home minister Anil Deshmukh and unknown others for criminal conspiracy and offence of undue gains as a public servant under the Prevention of Corruption Act.
A bench of Justices S S Shinde and N J Jamadar, while dismissing the state’s petition to delete two paras from the FIR, said the CBI can legitimately inquire into the aspect of transfer and postings of police officers, “so also (the) reinstatement of Sachin Waze after 15 years, to the extent those transfers and posting have nexus with offences alleged against then Home Minister and his associates keeping in view the observations of the bench in the order of April 5”.
