New Delhi, April 17 (IANS) A court here Thursday asked Delhi Police to file a status report on an FIR registered against BJP MP Nishikant Dubey and his wife Anamika, booked for demanding Rs.2 crore for campaigning for the Lok Sabha elections.
"Let the concerned IO (Investigating Officer) be called to appear in person qua the status of investigation for May 17," Metropolitan Magistrate Dheeraj Mittal said.
The court order came after the police filed the compliance report on the court's order directing it to register a case against the MP and his wife.
