New Delhi, India, December 8: Sanjay Pandey, the ex-Metro Police Commissioner, was released from the National Stock Exchange phone tapping and spying lawsuit registered by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Thursday, according to the Bench of Justice Jasmeet Singh.Pandey was arrested by the ED in the case and is now in jail.Pandey was defended in the case by Senior Advocate Mukul Rohatgi, Aditya Wadhwa, and Siddharth Sunil Advocates, who said that the charge of money laundering as defined by the Apex Court is not unfounded.Pandey said in his bail plea to the trial court that he had investigated and prosecuted several high-profile and politically sensitive cases, resulting in a purely tactical consequence of his service as a senior police officer, which is clearly motivated by ideological issues.The fact that a crime that allegedly occurred between 2009 and 2017 is being investigated in 2022, i.e., thirteen years since its alleged beginning and five years after its alleged closing, and all within a week of the Applicant releasing his office, said Sanjay Pandeys bail petition.
Pandey resigned in April 2000, and there was litigation between 2001-2006 over his service, according to Additional Solicitor General (ASG) SV Raju and Special Public Prosecutor Naveen Kumar Matta.VRS moved in 2007 and 2008, and he resigned from it.When he was incorporated, he formed a corporation that was incorporated in 2001, and even though he was not the company's director, he was still in service.We have evidence that he was in charge. The MTNL lines were eventually tapped.This firm was a family operation, with 4.54 crore being proceeds of crime, according to reports, and the government found enough evidence in the NSE co-location scandal, in which it wanted to know the identity of an audit firm established in 2001 by the retired Mumbai Police chief, that raised a red flag that the NSE servers were being compromised.The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) is currently looking at the case.It is claimed that the company formed by Pandey was one of the IT firms tasked with conducting security investigations at NSE between 2010 and 2015 at the time the co-location fraud took place.
