There is a report that a woman faking the Congress President and de facto PM of India called the Attorney General of India Vahnavati to go on leave and indicated that plans were afoot to replace him.
The Delhi Police verified this and found the call to have been made by a law officer of a PSU.
No action has been taken as they are not sure under what section of IPC they could take action!
CBI also confirmed its investigation of the affair.
To help the Delhi Police I am quoting the relevant I.P.C.
”
Besides Section 471, I.P.C, the respondent was also charged and prosecuted for the offences Under Sections 419, 420, 466, 467 and 468 I.P.C. The learned Sessions Judge, however, found that the said charges had not been proved and, accordingly, acquitted him of the said charges. This government appeal is directed against the acquittal of the respondent for the aforesaid offences in respect of which he was acquitted by the lower court.
So far as the charge Under Section 419 I.P.C. was concerned, it does not refer to cheating by forgery………………The accused personated himself as the brother of the Minister (of L.S.G.D.). That Minister had nothing to do with Engineering Department to which the appointing officers belonged. By introducing himself as the brother of LS.G.D. Minister, the accused could not have cheated the said officers. Those officers regarded the forged letters of the Irrigation and Power Minister as virtual orders. As such the cheating was made possible not by personation but by forgery.
Delhi Police is likely to register an FIR and make arrests based on attorney general Goolam E Vahanvati’s complaint that a woman pretending to be Congress chief Sonia Gandhisought to bully him into going on leave and suggesting a replacement.
Sources said the investigation conducted so far suggests that the woman caller, suspected to be an employee of BHEL who introduced herself to the law officer as Anita Gupta, secretary to the Congress chief, was hardly pulling off an innocent prank as she would call the AG after the hearing in the Supreme Court on the Coalgate scam.
