Mumbai: The Supreme Court today quashed the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act and certain other cases against Mumbai's controversial police officer and encounter specialist Daya Nayak.
A Bench of Justices Markandeya Katju and T S Thakur quashed the cases against Nayak on the ground that the complaint filed by Ketan Tirodkar, his estranged friend and ex-journalist, was not maintainable as prior sanction of the government was not obtained by the complainant.
The complaint had charged Nayak of accepting money from mafia/underworld bosses and his alleged links with Pakistan- based gangster Chhota Shakeel. Tirodkar is also facing trial for his alleged involvement in underworld activities.
