The court, which also issued summons to Singh asking him to appear on November 3, noted that "prima facie it appears that the accused was part and parcel and an important link in the chain of events of the alleged criminal conspiracy". Special Judge Sangita Dhingra Sehgal, in her order yesterday, said, "In my considered view there is sufficient material on record to form an opinion that Rewati Raman Singh was part of the alleged criminal conspiracy.
"I take cognisance of the offence under section 120 B (conspiracy) of IPC against Rewati Raman Singh. He be summoned to appear on November 3, 2011 and summons be handed over to IO ACP Rajender Bakshi for effecting service on accused Rewati Raman Singh." The Delhi police had on October 14 told the court that there was no evidence till now to show Rewati Raman Singh`s involvement in the scam.
The court, however, took congnisance of the offence after taking into account the records and the statements made by three co-accused former BJP MPs -- Faggan Singh Kulaste, Mahabir Singh Bhagora and sitting MP Ashok Argal. "The material placed on record and the signed statement of 3 MPs are sufficient to show Rewati Raman Singh was the person who led the three MPs and arranged a meeting with Amar Singh promising that there interest would be taken care of," the judge said.
