connection with the 2G spectrum allocation scam.

Official sources said Pasha was questioned by the agency
about his links and possible business deals with the former
minister.

Pasha owned certain firms which had alleged links to
certain relatives of Raja. Pasha`s firms were also raided by
the CBI late last year.

His firm is also under the scanner of the Enforcement

firms.

The apex court has asked CBI and ED to submit status
reports on their probe to it by February 10, when the 2G
spectrum case will come up for hearing.
