The CBI today informed the Supreme Court that it would file a charge sheet in the illegal mining case involving the former Karnataka minister Mr Gali Janardhan reddy and his Obulapuram Mining Corporation (OMC) by Dec 4.
A division bench of the court, headed by Chief Justice Mr Kapadia, today examined the extended interim report submitted by the CBI on the illegal mining and gave it time to file full fledged report by Jan 15, 2012.
When the CBI informed the court that it would file a charge sheet by Dec 4, the court asked the CBI officials to incorporate the charge sheet details in the report.
The court also ordered the Indian Council of Forest Research and Education (ICFRE) to conduct a detailed survey on the illegal mining resorted to by the Gali Janardhan reddy-owned Obulapuram Mining Corporation in the districts of Chitradurg and Tumkur of Karnataka and submit to the court a detailed report.
The apex court passed these orders while examining the CBI report on the illegal mining undertaken by the Gali brothers in Karnataka. It asked the organization to hand over a copy of the report to the defendants also.
