2G scam: Raja aide Sadiq Batcha summoned







The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has summoned a key aide of former telecom minister A. Raja, Sadiq Batcha, for questioning in connection with the 2G spectrum allocation scam.
 

Batcha, who is the promoter of Greenhouse, a company considered to be a front company of Raja, will appear before the probe agency on February 23.

Batcha's Chennai-based export house is believed to have been a means of funds that were paid as kickbacks in the 2G spectrum allocation scam. A host of other Raja aides are under the CBI scanner and may also be grilled.

The CBI had earlier raided the premises of greenhouse promoters and questioned Batcha in December last year.
