The Delhi High Court Wednesday directed the CBI to speed up the probe against Virbhadra Singh.
A division bench of Acting Chief Justice B.D. Ahmed and Justice Siddharth Mridul expressed displeasure at the status report submitted by the Central Bureau of Investigation on corruption, money laundering and possession of assets disproportionate to Virbhadra Singh's known sources of income.
Advocate Prashant Bhushan, appearing for petitioner NGO Common Cause, told the court there were some recent instances of money laundering and corruption by Virbhadra Singh's family members.
The court asked the CBI to respond to the fresh allegations, and posted the matter for April 30.
