New Delhi: The Enforcement Directorate is set to tighten its noose in the 2G spectrum allocations case as the agency will soon file its chargesheet against two of the main accused - former Telecom Minister A Raja and DMK leader Kanimozhi.
Both Raja and Kanimozhi have been questioned by the ED quite a number of times and the agency is probing alleged money laundering and forex violations on the part of individuals, in the government and private, in the second generation spectrum awards case.
The agency is probing Kanimozhi and others on the basis of FIR filed by the CBI in connection with the alleged channelling of Rs 200 crore to DMK family-run Kalaignar TV through a circuitous route.
New Delhi: DMK MP Kanimozhi, facing trial in the 2G spectrum allocation case, was today allowed by a Delhi court to cast her vote in the Vice-Presidential poll.
Special CBI Judge O P Saini permitted Kanimozhi, a Rajya Sabha MP from Tamil Nadu, to leave the court in the morning to vote in the Vice-Presidential election today.

New Delhi: A Special CBI court hearing 2G spectrum allocation case on Tuesday allowed DMK MP Kanimozhi to participate in a two-day agitation conducted by her party in Tamil Nadu against the AIADMK government.
Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) Special Judge OP Saini granted Kanimozhi exemption from personal appearance in the court 4-5th July.
10:50 am: @Sanjay_Pinto tweets:Traffic diverted at Nandanam, Rangarajapuram! Saidapet and Arcot Road as 50,000DMKworkers court arrest. Following Karuna's orders cadre are also reportedly carrying suitcases with clothes in it, so that they might go straight to jail, rather than seek bail.
10.32am: DMK leaders Kanimozhi, Stalin and Dayanidhi Maran are all courting arrest as part of an agitation against what they are calling the vindictive policies of the AIADMK government. Around 50,000 DMK cardres are expected to participate in the 'Jail baro' agitation as well. Interestingly for the champions of Tamil, it is ironical to be using a hindi phrase, Jail baro.
The heat has been turned on the DMK barely hours after its party president M Karunanidhi announced his decision for the party to to pull out of the UPA government over the Sri Lankan Tamil issue.
Enforcement Directorate officials have planted media stories suggesting that Karunanidhi's daughter Kanimozhi, who is one of the accused in the 2G spectrum case, may face another jail term - and even see her properties attached - if they file a chargesheet against her under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act.
