New Delhi:
Taking its investigation further in the Railway bribery scam, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has recorded the statement of Chairman Railway Board Vinay Mittal in connection with the case allegedly involving former Railway Minister Pawan Bansal's nephew Vijay Singla.
CBI sources said Mr Mittal was questioned in connection with details of promotions and postings of Board members last evening.
Underlining that Mr Mittal was not questioned as accused, CBI sources said he was questioned for three hours starting 5 pm.
The case relates to alleged bribe payment to Mr Singla by Board member Mahesh Kumar for getting posting of choice.
Mr Bansal had to resign as Railway Minister early this month after his nephew and a few other persons were arrested by CBI in a case involving alleged payment of bribe for fixing a top level Railway Board position.
