New Delhi:
Reacting to the special CBI court's rejection of his plea to make Home Minister P Chidambaram a co-accused in the 2G scam case, Janata Party chief Subramanian Swamy said on Saturday that he would appeal against the order in higher courts. "I have very very strong case," he added.
"I am surprised," Swamy said soon after the court dismissed his plea against Chidambaram. "I will go to another court. This order deserves to be reserved. I will certainly appeal against it," he told reporters.
He insisted that he has a "very very strong case" both against Chidambaram and A Raja, the main accused in the 2G spectrum allocation scam.
He said the Supreme Court had said earlier that a trial court's decision could be challenged directly in the higher court and that he would examine this option as well.
"How can Chidambaram be vindicated by one court unless he is vindicated in all the courts," he said.
"This is nothing new for me. I will go for appeal...This is not the first time that a petition has been dismissed," he said, while recalling that his appeals against High Court decisions in the cases of grant of sanctions and cancellation of 2G licenses had been upheld by the Supreme Court on Thursday.
Swamy said he was yet to go through the trial court's order and the reasons given by it.
"I don't know what the judge has said... I have to see it," he added.
Asked whether he was disappointed, he disagreed and said "this is part of the game. May be only journalists are disappointed."
