CBI grills former NDA commandant for 2 days

Former commandant of the National Defence Academy (NDA), Lt General Jatinder Singh, was grilled by a team of Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) officials in the NDA job scam case for the second consecutive day on Tuesday.

Lt Gen Singh was the NDA commandant when a Rs2 crore scam in the recruitment of class III and IV officers came to light in July.

Lt Gen Singh was later transferred to the Army Headquarters as a staffer.

The CBI officials, however, were tight-lipped about the outcome of the interrogations. Superintendent of CBI-Anti Corruption Bureau (ACB) Rajkumar Vhatkar said, “We have been interrogating Lt Gen Singh for the last two days. We questioned him on various aspects of the case from 10 am on Tuesday till late evening. We cannot disclose what was the outcome of the questioning. Information about the revelations will be included in the chargesheet which will be submitted to the court.”

The CBI-ACB had already arrested eight people including two serving Colonels in the case. The arrested people include Colonel Kulbir Singh, Colonel AK Singh, Suhas Waghmare, Manoj Shitkal, Dattatray Shitkal, Balkishan Kanojia, Vishnu Sharma and Ramesh Gaikwad. All the arrested people have been granted bail.
