The CBI is all set to send a judicial request to the authorities concerned in Germany to get details about certain individuals linked to a private firm based there as part of its investigation into the alleged irregularities in procurement of software worth Rs 225 crore by Air India in 2011.
The agency, sources said, will soon approach the competent court in this regard. The CBI recently registered a case against unknown officials of Air India, German firm SAP AG and global computer major IBM in connection with alleged irregularities in procurement of software worth Rs 225 crore by the national carrier in 2011. The agency registered the case on the recommendation of the Central Vigilance Commission (CVC) which found prima facie procedural irregularities in the procurement of the software. After considering the reports of chief vigilance officer of Air India, the commission in a communication to CBI said it was of the view that there were “serious procedural and other irregularities” in the procurement as well as amount paid and extent of services rendered.
