NEW DELHI: The CBI will examine Tata group chairman Ratan Tata and Cyrus Mistry in connection with the Radia tapes.
Ratan Tata had in November 2010 moved the Supreme Court seeking protection of his right to privacy and a CBI inquiry to nail those who leaked official telephone intercepts of corporate lobbyist Niira Radia including conversations featuring him.
The phone conversations of Radia were originally tapped by the government as part of an investigation into tax evasion.
Tata's counsel had claimed before the Supreme Court that a "corporate battle" was behind the leak of intercepted telephone conversations between Niira Radia and influential persons, pointing specifically towards a "corporate involved in telecom machinations".
