NEW DELHI: The Central Bureau of Investigation has sought judicial custody of Rajiv Saxena, a co-accused in the Rs 3,600 crore VVIP chopper scandal, claiming he actively tried to obtain citizenship of Dominica and Cyprus.
The investigating agency has urged a special CBI court to cancel the bail granted to Saxena, saying he “intentionally” kept Indian authorities in the dark about his attempts to acquire foreign citizenship in a bid to thwart the probe in the case. Dominica does not have an extradition treaty with India.
