The Punjab High Court has handed over the controversial cash-for-transfer case to the Central Bureau of Investigation, marking a significant step in the probe.
The Punjab High Court has transferred the high-profile cash-for-transfer case to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). The decision was made after a hearing that examined the need for a specialized investigative agency to handle the complex allegations. The case involves accusations that officials accepted bribes in exchange for facilitating the transfer of a government property. The CBI will now take over the investigation, conduct its own inquiry, and present findings to the court. The transfer is expected to bring greater scrutiny and a more thorough probe into the alleged misconduct.
