Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the complaint filed by Dr. Subramanian Swamy under the Prevention of Corruption Act against A. Raja and alleged complicity of P. Chidambaram. The Court emphasized the necessity of thorough investigation into the allegations of collusion and breach of trust, particularly concerning national security and the issuance of telecom licenses. The Court held that there was sufficient material to warrant further investigation against P. Chidambaram, thereby allowing the complaint to proceed under Section 5(3) of the PC Act.
