The Rajasthan High Court on Friday took on record the state government라이브 바카라 clarification on terming Union minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat an accused in the Sanjeevani Credit Cooperative Society case.

The court is hearing Shekhawat라이브 바카라 plea to quash the FIR registered by the Rajasthan Police in the alleged scam in which thousands of investors were duped.

In a previous hearing on April 13, the Congress-run state라이브 바카라 counsel Abhishek Singhvi had termed Sehkahwat라이브 바카라 plea misconceived, submitting that he was not an accused in any FIR registered by the Rajasthan Special Operations Group (SOG) in the case.

Two days later, the state government moved a fresh application saying Singhvi라이브 바카라 submission was inadvertent as he had appeared through video conferencing, and could not get assistance from the SOG investigating officer who was present in the court.

Justice Kuldeep Mathur라이브 바카라 court on Friday took the state government라이브 바카라 new application on record, but made it clear that its earlier stay on the minister라이브 바카라 arrest remains in force.

The fresh submission by the state government on Friday said Shekhawat is an accused in the FIR on the basis of the investigation done so far. Thousands of investors were allegedly cheated of several hundred crores of rupees in the alleged scam.

Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot has alleged that Shekhawat and his family were linked to the credit society, a charge trashed by the Union minister.

The minister has also filed a defamation case in a Delhi court against Gehlot.
