The CBI, which has been investigating the illegal properties case involving the YSR Congress party president Mr YS Jaganmohan Reddy, is likely to file the charge sheet in the case in the special court on March 30 or April 2.

Reports from Delhi and Hyderabad said the CBI officials investigating the case have already sent a copy of the charge sheet to its head office in Delhi and are awaiting clearance for its submission to the court.

CBI, which had registered the case on August 17 last year, has listed 72 persons and organizations including Jagan as accused. The agency has already arrested Jagan’s confidant and auditor Mr Vijayasai Reddy in the case and is gearing up for more arrests in the case.

The apex investigating agency has already collected evidence to prove that some individuals and companies had invested on a quid-pro-quo basis in Jagan-owned companies such as Jagathi Publications, Indira Television, Sundur Power and Karmel Asia after getting favours from the YSR regime. (J)
