Swamy demands probe into Batcha's death
16 Mar 2011
Janata Party president Subramanian Swamy, the main petitioner in the 2G scam case, has demanded a proper investigation into the death of Sadiq Batcha, who was a close aide of the tainted telecom minister A Raja.
"The most important thing is that suicides and murders are going to be a common part of the 2G investigations because reputations of too many people are involved in the case," reports quoted Swamy as saying.
Swamy refused to accept reports that Batcha has committed suicide.
"I do not accept the fact that Batcha would have committed suicide. The CBI should find the complete truth," he said.
"Sadiq was not a weak heart. He was a hard boiled character. I want to be doubly sure on whether it is a suicide or not," he added.
Swamy also said that top people could be involved in Batcha's death who he could not name.
