The vehicles were also used for personal work by the managing trustee.<\/p>\n<p>The agency had again filed a closure report, saying &#8220;during the course of further investigation, the allegations levelled against Maneka Gandhi, Dr F U Siddiqui and Dr Vijay Sharma could not be substantiated.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It is, therefore, prayed that the closure report dated December 30, 2008, collectively read with this report, may kindly be accepted,&#8221; it said. The final report is pending in the court.<\/p>\n<p>The FIR in the case was lodged for the alleged offences under section 120-B (criminal conspiracy) read with section 420 (cheating) of the IPC and under relevant provisions of the Prevention of Corruption Act.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A special court would next month consider a protest petition against CBI&#8217;s move to close a case against Union Minister Maneka Gandhi and two others for sanctioning Rs 50 lakh grant to a trust allegedly in a &#8220;fraudulent&#8221; manner in 2001.
