In what has brought shame to the Parliament, three sitting Rajya Sabha MPs and three former Members of the Upper House have been booked in the fake Leave and Travel Concession (LTC) scam.
The CBI registered cases against Rajya Sabha MPs D Bandopadhyay (Trinamool Congress), Brajesh Pathak (BSP) and Lalhming Liana (Mizo National Front) under various Sections of IPC. Former Rajya Sabha MPs Renu Pradhan (BJD), Mahmood A Madani (RLD) and JPN Singh (BJP) too have been named as accused in the scam and two fresh arrests have also been made in the case.
Lakhs of rupees have fraudulently been claimed by these honourable MPs as reimbursements by allegedly using forged air travel bills and fake boarding passes.
CBI sleuths conducted raids at nine locations in Delhi and one in Odisha. The agency found prima facie irregularities and claims to have recovered incriminating documents to substantiate the allegations. The probe agency seized fake stamps, similar of its kind used for security checks in airports, and a number of blank boarding passes.
