New Delhi, Jan 5 (IANS) A court here awarded three years' rigorous imprisonment to the then additional private secretary of a minister for amassing disproportionate assets of over Rs. 60 lakhs.
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) Special Judge Vinod Kumar held Singh guilty in a 2002 disproportionate assets case and also slapped him with a fine of Rs. 10,000.
Singh was convicted under various provisions of the Prevention of Corruption Act.
"...assets to the extent of Rs.67 lakhs were found beyond the means of the accused (Singh)... which he could not satisfactorily account for," the judge said.
