Chandigarh, May 10
Filing its response in court in the Jammu and Kashmir sex scandal case, the CBI today strongly opposed the application moved by Ghulam Ahmed Mir, former J & K minister, wherein he had sought discharge from the ongoing trial in the infamous case. Mir had earlier moved lower court seeking dismissal of the complaint against him.
In its reply, the CBI today submitted that all accused involved in the case were to be tried by the court jointly and not in isolation. Mir in his application had taken the ground that the prosecutrix and witnesses in the case had turned hostile and that there was no evidence with the CBI to proceed against Mir.
The CBI submitted that even though witnesses had turned hostile, it had sufficient evidence to nail and establish the connivance and involvement of the accused involved in the scandal. The CBI had further stated that it was for the court to peruse the evidence produced by the investigating agency and decide as to whether proceedings were to be dropped.
