New Delhi, October 19: Union Law Minister M Veerappa Moily today said he was keeping a “close watch” on the PF case in which the prime accused died in a jail in Ghaziabad, and promised to ensure a “proper enquiry” into it.
“Yeah, I am keeping a close watch on that and ensure that there should be a proper enquiry and I am getting reports on that,” Moily told NDTV when asked whether he is taking a close look at the enquiry into the case and taking it as some sort of a benchmark case.
He said the nation would like to know the truth behind the death of accused Ashutosh Asthana, a court staff and the prime accused in the Rs 23 crore scam in which the names of a number of higher and lower judiciary judges, including that of a judge of the apex court, had cropped up.
