Sir — This refers to the editorial, “A compromised chief” (November 22). It is a telling commentary on the way serious cases having tremendous impact on the economy and politics, have been handled in a deleterious manner by the investigating agencies.
One cannot help recalling the oft-repeated statement of the UPA Ministers, whenever these cases were raised in the media or by the Opposition, that “the law will take its own course”. The Supreme Court’s observations on the 2G Spectrum case have blown such assertions to smithereens. Perhaps in India, this phrase carries a rider to the effect that the law will take its own course, subject to the will of those controlling it.
