Sanjay Jain refuses to give voice sample, SOG to move HC

JAIPUR: Sanjay Jain, the middleman accused by the SOG in the alleged conspiracy to topple the Congress government by horse trading of its MLAs, on Friday refused to give his voice sample for testing.
The SOG will now move the high court to get the voice sample of Jain who was arrested after being allegedly caught on audio tapes discussing the ‘plot’ to topple the state government.
The SOG had filed an application in the metropolitan court number 2 for voice sample.
Jain was produced before a local court on Friday where he refused to give his voice sample, saying he does not have faith in the SOG probe and the Forensic Science Laboratory report can be manipulated.
Jain was allegedly acting as a middleman and the Congress claims he is a BJP leader, a charge denied by the opposition party.
“As the accused is not co-operating with the investigation by refusing to give his voice sample in the lower court, we will take further legal steps and approach the high court in this matter against him,” ADG (SOG) Ashok Rathore said.
Rathore further said an SOG team has been camping in Manesar of Haryana to trace rebel Congress MLA Bhanwarlal Sharma.
Jain was arrested on July 17 after he was purportedly heard talking to now suspended Congress MLA Bhanwarlal Sharma and Gajendra Singh, who the Congress claims is Union minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat, in the audio tapes.
Congress chief whip Mahesh Joshi had lodged a complaint with the SOG following which the agency had lodged two FIRs against them.
