New Delhi, Apr 10: A day after CBI told a Delhi
court that it had seized "judicial files" during raids carried
out on DDA scam accused, Dharambir Khattar, his counsel today
prayed the court to direct the agency to produce the files
before it.

Stating that media reports had said about the recovery of
"judicial files" during raids on the accused, Khattar's
counsel prayed Additional Sessions Judge Prem Kumar that CBI
be directed to produce all records seized by it in the court.

CBI was manipulating the investigation, he alleged adding
it may even try to alter the records. He also requested the
court to direct the agency to supply him with a copy of the
seizure memo.

Similar views were voiced by the counsel for accused
Anand Mohan Sharan, who even cited the suit number of the
files allegedly recovered by the agency.

Meanwhile the court directed that Khattar, who is
admitted to a private hospital here, be shifted to AIIMS.

The court had yesterday directed AIIMS Medical
Superintendent to study Khattar's medial reports and submit a
reply today. Perusing the reply, which said that Khattar
needed to be evaluated and investigated after work at AIIMS,
the ASJ ordered that Khattar be "shifted immediately" there
"in an ambulance with a doctor and a nurse."

It directed the Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate
to depute a Magistrate "to extend the judicial custody of
accused for an appropriate period."

The court also remanded sacked DDA vice chairman Subhash
Sharma, Commissioner (land disposal) and Ajay Khanna of DLF
Universal Ltd to judicial custody till April 24.
