A Supreme Court bench comprising of Justice Sanjay Kishan Kaul and Justice Subhash Reddy will tomorrow hear the petition filed by former Mumbai Police chief Pram Bir Singh seeking CBI investigation in the alleged ?corrupt malpractices of Anil Deshmukh, Home Minister of Government of Maharashtra.


The top cop also urged the court to direct the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to probe the report submitted by Rashmi Shukla, that alleged Deshmukhs alleged illegal transfers and posting. Singh even requested for the collection of CCTV footage of the Minister’s residence in Mumbai to corroborate with the charges pressed against him.

Days after his transfer as DG in Maharashtra’s home guard department, Singh in a letter to state Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray made shocking revelations and alleged that Deshmukh had met his subordinates, including arrested cop Sachin Waze and asked them to collect Rs 100 crore monthly, including Rs 50 to Rs 60 crore from bars and hotels in Mumbai.

Deshmukh however refuted all the allegations and threatened to sue Singh for defamation.

In his petition before the Supreme court Singh requested for ?unbiased, uninfluenced, impartial and fair investigation in the various corrupt malpractices of Anil Deshmukh, the Hon?ble Home Minister of Government of Maharashtra, before the evidences are destroyed.

Singh in his petition also prayed before the honourable court to put a stay on his transfer from his post of Mumbai police commissioner. The top cop was transferred from his post last week, in the midst of a probe by the NIA into the recovery of an explosives-laden SUV which was found parked outside the south Mumbai residence of industrialist Mukesh Ambani last month.
