During the hearing in Rouse Avenue Court, questions were raised on the CBI charge sheet. The judge said that the documents given by CBI do not match the charge sheet. The judge expressed his displeasure that he had not even been given a copy of the confessional statement yet. I expect honesty from the CBI lawyer. The judge said – “I was also concerned that words like South Group were used. This is not right. If CBI had filed the same charge sheet in Chennai, would it have written South Group? Who coined this word?
