Ludhiana: The court of Sessions Judge Gurbir Singh today rejected the plea of former DGP Sumedh Singh Saini for making him a party in the City Centre case.
Saini had urged the court to hear him before taking any decision on the closure report filed by the Vigilance Bureau giving a clean chit to Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh and all other accused in the City Centre case.
After the court ruling Saini’s counsel said he will move to the high court.
The Rs 1,100 crore scam case, alleging that a private builder was favoured in 2003, was filed in 2007 when the SAD-BJP coalition was in power.
