NEW DELHI: After Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Home Minister P Chidambaram, on Monday it was the turn of  Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee who had held the External Affairs portfolio in the UPA-I Cabinet, to be dragged into the 2G scam in the trial court .
Making a rather startling allegation, 2G accused Shahid Balwa’s lawyer, Majid Memon, claimed that the CBI had withheld from the court some crucial documents pertaining to a personal discussion between Mukherjee, then Minister of External Affairs, and the Solicitor General of those days, Ghoolam Vahanvati, on the telecom allocation policy. This was in 2007.
