The Maharashtra Home Department has formed a Special Investigation Team to investigate whether the erstwhile MVA government was planning to arrest Eknath Shinde and Devendra Fadnavis in a fake case.
This SIT - which has been asked to submit its report to the government within 30 days -- will be headed by Mumbai police officer Satyanarayan Chaudhary.
A businessman, Sanjay Punamiya, had claimed he had a sting in which a former police officer, during a telephonic conversation, said the former Mumbai Police Commissioner was preparing to get Devendra Fadnavis and Eknath Shinde arrested. The arrest, he claimed, would be linked to a case against him.
The probe team was announced in the assembly on Tuesday by senior cabinet minister Shambhuraje Desai, who said it would be headed by a senior IPS officer.
