The Supreme Court on Tuesday said there seems to be a violation of several laws and the forging of documents in the 2G spectrum scam. The apex court bench of Justice GS Singhvi and Justice AK Ganguly made the observation after it was given a status report by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on their investigation into the scam.
The court said that in its hearing Wednesday it would consider the plea by the senior counsel KK Venugopal, appearing for the ED, seeking protection for investigators from unfounded media reports. The judges said that it will also consider a plea by senior counsel Prashant Bhushan seeking day-to-day supervision of investigation by the CBI and ED by two independent retired officers of impeccable integrity and reputation.
