A police officer refused to accept a complaint filed by suspended Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officer Pradeep Kumar against Narendra Modi and the state's former home minister and key aide Amit Shah, accordng to TV reports.
Kumar told media that he had arrived at the police station at around 12.30pm on Monday to file his complaint against Modi and Shah in connection with the case which he sees as a cognizable offence.
He said that the concerned station house officer first refused to accept the complaint and then later said that the matter was already sub judice and had been placed before a central government-appointed inquiry committee for a probe, ANI reported.
The 1984-batch IAS officer has claimed he was being victimized by the BJP government in Gujarat for his knowledge of the "intimacy" shared by Modi with the architect. Sharma is facing six criminal cases in Gujarat.
Two investigative news portals, Cobrapost.com and Gulail.com have claimed, on the basis of taped conversation, that Shah had ordered the illegal surveillance at the behest of one "Saheb" in 2009.
Gujarat government appointed a two-member commission on November 26 to inquire into the snooping scandal.
The Centre on December 26 also constituted a commission of inquiry to investigate the snooping on a woman in Gujarat allegedly at the behest of Modi. The Union Cabinet had also decided to constitute the inquiry into the incidents of physical/electronic surveillance in Gujarat, Himachal Pradesh and Delhi allegedly without authorization.
