January 19th, 2012 - 1:01 am ICT by IANS ( Leave a comment )New Delhi Jan 18 (IANS) The lawyers for some of accused in the 2G spectrum scam Wednesday accused the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) of tutoring witnesses.
However, CBI counsel A.K. Singh told Special CBI Judge O.P. Saini, hearing the case, that there is no legal barrier to prevent the witness from interacting with prosecution counsel.
The submission was made during the testimony of a particular prosecution witness, an official of an infrastructure company said.
