Special CBI Judge Brijesh Garg said.<\/p>\n<p>Refusing to accept the charge sheet filed by CBI, the court said the agency has tried to &#8220;save&#8221; senior officers of NTPC and members of the Cabinet Committee on Infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>Ordering the CBI Director to supervise further probe, the court asked him to assign the investigation to an officer not below the rank of a Joint Director.<\/p>\n<p>The court had in April last year returned CBI&#8217;s charge sheet filed in the case while directing the agency to further probe it on the aspect of fixing of responsibility of NTPC officials who had &#8220;deliberately&#8221; not pointed out the deficiencies in the tender documents of Russian firm Technopromexport (TPE).<\/p>\n<p>The court, however, was annoyed that no further probe has been done by CBI for the last over one-and-a half years to comply with its earlier order.<\/p>\n<p>According to CBI, from 2002 to 2005 some NTPC officials had obtained illegal gratification in award of super thermal power contract at Barh in Bihar.<\/p>\n<p>The FIR in the case was registered on information from Interpol, London, which alleged that 15 million pounds were lying in a UK bank account and appeared to be meant for kickbacks.<\/p>\n<p>CBI had alleged that NTPC had entered into three contracts with TPE Russia and transferred USD 53,633,554 to it as advance money.<\/p>\n<p>It had said that TPE later transferred USD 10,37,36,221 and USD 10,37,2,441.07 to Delhi-based Ravina Associates Pvt Ltd at Natwest Bank on May 5 and May 18, 2005, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>CBI alleged that more than USD 20.07 million was paid by TPE Russia to Ravina Associates Pvt Ltd as commission equalling a percentage of the contract.<\/p>\n<p>CBI, in its fresh charge sheet filed in August this year, had named as accused M\/s FGUP VO Technopromexport, its two officials, Ravina and Associates Pvt Ltd and its director.<\/p>\n<p>( Source &#8211;
