A city court issued notices to all the accused in the 2G spectrum case seeking their response on July 3 on a plea by the CBI seeking to call 17 more prosecution witnesses — including Reliance ADA Group chairman Anil Ambani and his wife Tina Ambani.
Special CBI Judge OP Saini issued notices after Special Public Prosecutor UU lalit told the court that their testimonies are required to be recorded to arrive at the truth.
The judge said he would decide on July 3 whether to seek a reply from accused on a separate CBI plea seeking to recall telecom department official Nitin Jain as a witness.
During the hearing, lalit told the court that these witnesses are required to be called for recording of their statements to ascertain the truth. He told the court that some documents regarding transaction of money have been received from the banks and these witnesses are required to be examined in that context.
