New Delhi:
There was high drama in the special court hearing the 2G case today as Aseervatham Achary, a key witness and ex-aide of former telecom minister A Raja, claimed that he and his family faced a threat to their lives from a person present in court.
The alleged offender tried to run away, but was nabbed. He has been identified as Jai Prakash, who works as a clerk at the Reliance Power office in Sector 24, Noida.
The drama began at about 10.40 am. When Raja's counsel Sushil Kumar asked him why he had visited the CBI office on September 5, a visibly-shaken Achary told Special Judge O P Saini: "I want to submit something as my life depends on it and the lives of my wife and four-year-old daughter depend on it. I am in danger... The person who tried to kill me is just here in the courtroom."
As he spoke, a man wearing a green sweater and sitting with some of the accused in the case was seen making his way out of the court. But he was caught outside by a CBI inspector.
