Delhi HC seeks prosecution of 5 CBI officials in decade-old IRS graft case

The Delhi High Court has recommended prosecution of five CBI officials in connection with a graft case involving an IRS officer, a decade after the officer's discharge from the proceedings.

The officials stand accused of submitting false statements to the trial court. Specifically, they are alleged to have misrepresented the status of communications with the government regarding legal action against the IRS officer.

The high court's recommendation comes as part of its review of the case, raising questions about the integrity of the investigative process and the statements placed before the trial court during the proceedings.
