Earlier, the BJP politician had demanded the court to direct the ministry of consumer affairs to declare NSEL promoters and directors as not “fit and proper” and that the spot exchange be barred from any further business activities until an order is passed by the court.
Somaiya had also written letters to the ministry of finance and consumer affairs to register criminal cases and investigate the money trail in the alleged NSEL scam. Somaiya had named NSEL top brass, including Jignesh Shah and former NSEL chairman Shankarlal Guru as respondents.
The Central Vigilance Commission, Central Board of Direct Taxes, Economic Offence Wing (Mumbai Police), Mukesh P Shah (statutory auditor of NSEL) and the government-owned Minerals and Metals Trading Corporation (MMTC) were also listed as respondents in his petition.
