Sanjay Chandra, Unitech's Managing Director, has denied having any conversation with the CBI prosecutor in the 2G spectrum scam case, AK Singh, who has been removed because he was allegedly colluding with representatives of the company.

Here is the full statement by Unitech:

Sanjay Chandra is currently unavailable owing to bereavement in his family. However, he wishes to make it absolutely clear that he has never met the Prosecutor in the 2G case outside of Court or had any phone conversation with him. He denies the suggestion that his voice is on any alleged recording. It appears a fabricated voice recording has been sent anonymously to the CBI. Any suggestion that Sanjay Chandra is linked with this recording is nothing but an attempt to malign him and prejudice his defence in the 2G case. Increasingly, manipulated voice recordings are finding their way into the public domain with ulterior motives. Despite the bereavement in his family, Sanjay Chandra has joined the CBI's enquiries and has made his stand crystal clear. It is regrettable that CNN IBN did not deem it appropriate to wait for a determination by the CBI and forensic experts regarding the genesis and authenticity of the alleged voice recording before airing the same. It is re-iterated that the recording is a fabrication.

In the past also, in several cases if fabricated recordings have been played out but not one of them have stood the test of judicial scrutiny.
