Shah: Trying to quash FIR against me
He alleged that there is a conspiracy against them at the behest of the previous government.
Mumbai: Beleaguered businessman Jignesh Shah on Thursday informed mediapersons that he has filed an appeal in the Bombay high court (HC) seeking to quash the FIR registered by the Central Bureau of Information (CBI) against him, and his appeal in the HC has also sought to declare the searches by the central agency as illegal.
Shah, chairman of 63 Moons Technologies, while speaking to the media, said, “Central agencies are being misled by vested interests who are trying to divert the attention from the truth getting established and prejudice the minds of investigating agencies and the ongoing judicial cases.”
He alleged that there is a conspiracy against them at the behest of the previous government.
After a nationwide search, in March this year, the CBI had registered a case against Shah, four former chairpersons of the now-defunct Forward Market Commission and others for granting permission to MCX in 2003, even though it had not fulfilled the eligibility criteria and facilitated it to become a nationwide multi-commodity exchange status.
