NEW DELHI: The CBI on Tuesday questioned Anup Majhi, the alleged mastermind of illegal coal mining in Eastern Coalfields Ltd mines in West Bengal’s Asansol, in connection with the coal pilferage scam, officials said.
The Supreme Court had restrained the agency from arresting Majhi till April 6.
“The petitioner shall not be arrested until April 6. This order has been passed without going into the merit of the case. We clarify that this order will not restrain the investigation,” a bench headed by Justice D Y Chandrachud had said.
