IndiaThe Madras High Court dismissed a petition filed by former Union Minister A. Raja, who sought a direction to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to provide documents related to a disproportionate assets case against him, his wife, and others. The case originated from allegations linked to the 2G spectrum allocation during his tenure as Union Telecommunication Minister in 2009. In 2015, the CBI registered a First Information Report (FIR) under the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988, alleging that Raja and his associates accumulated assets worth ₹27.92 crore disproportionate to their known income. The CBI completed its investigation in 2022, filing a chargesheet that accused Raja of possessing ₹5.53 crore in disproportionate assets. Raja had previously applied to the special court in 2025, requesting the CBI to submit all relevant documents to enable effective defense. The court rejected his petition after considering arguments from both Raja's counsel and the CBI's prosecutor.
