New Delhi:  The Delhi Police has said that a controversial CD of purported conversations between lawyer-activist Shanti Bhushan and politicians Amar Singh and Mulayam Singh Yadav was not doctored.

The CD was sent anonymously to media offices in April, this year. The CD allegedly has Mr Bhushan in conversation with Samajwadi Party leader Mulayam Singh and Amar Singh. A voice that resembles Mr Bhushan's states that a judge can be bribed for four crores for a desired verdict.

Mr Bhushan, and his son, Prashant, had both said the CD contained different conversations edited together to discredit them. A forensic lab in Chandigarh had said the CD was doctored; a government lab in Delhi and another in Hyderabad said it was genuine.  Prashant Bhushan filed a police case alleging that the CDs were doctored.

Bhushans Better Go!

It is better that we ask Bhushans to quit the Jan Lok Pal Bill Draft Committee.

Mr. Kejriwal's fear that it was only a smear campaign to malign the civil society reps. on the Committee and if we allow Bhushans to resign, soon he too would be targeted to go, through such similar campaigns is unfounded.  If he has something to hide, only then he should entertain such fears.

The current campaign against Bhushans may well be a mere smear campaign, but given the gravity of allegations, in the larger interest of the Jan Lok Pal Bill, they should immediately make way for others with non-controversial background to occupy the Draft Committee.

And to think that if they go out of the Draft Committee, Indian civil society cannot throw up alternatives is nonsense.

We can very well throw up better individuals with impeccable statures.
