Firstpost reports:
Former Communications Minister Dayanidhi Maran benefited indirectly by Rs 549,96,01,793 (Rs 549.96 crore) as quid pro quo for various favours to Aircel, owned by Malaysia-based company Maxis, alleges a new First Information Report (FIR) filed by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in the 2G spectrum case early this week. Firstpost has seen the FIR that has been filed.
The amount of Rs 550 crore (rounded up) was allegedly received by a company owned by Maran’s brother Kalanithi, and is much larger than the Rs 200 crore allegedly paid to Andimuthu Raja.
Raja, who had succeeded Maran in the ministry, is said to have favoured Swan Telecom and the latter’s promoters had in turn given Rs 200 crore to DMK-controlled Kalaignar TV. DMK chief M Karunanidhi’s daughter Kanimozhi is in jail for that, though she claims the money was a loan and has since been returned.
