SIT questions former Maharashtra DGP

The Special Investigation Team on Thursday questioned former Maharashtra director general of police Subhashchandra Malhotra in connection with the fake stamp paper racket.

Malhotra had given a clean chit to the then Mumbai police commissioner R S Sharma when the then SIT chief DIG Subodh Jaiswal had presented a report on the omissions and commissions of the Pune police in the investigation into the scam. Sharma was earlier the commissioner of the Pune police.
