Kanimozhi : 2G scam


CBI charge sheets Kanimozhi, 4 others in 2G scam



The Central Bureau of Investigation on Monday accused five more persons including the Tamil Nadu Chief Minister's daughter and promoter of Kalaignar TV, Ms Kanimozhi Karunanidhi, as co-conspirators in the 2G spectrum scam.

Kanimozhi and her mother Dayalu Ammal are directors of Kalaignar TV, holding 20% and 60% stake respectively. That the duo was aligned with sacked telecom minister A Raja in DMK's factional equation led the CBI to suspect a quid pro quo between one of the beneficiaries of the controversial allocation of licence and 2G spectrum under Raja and his political allies. The remaining 20% of the equity in the channel is with its managing director Sharad Kumar.
