Defence Minister A.K. Antony on Monday said the Central Bureau of Investigation is vigilantly pursuing the Copter case and all those found guilty will be brought to justice. He said he thinks someone has definitely taken money in the notorious Rs. 3,546 crore deal of 12 VVIP helicopters with AgustaWestland.
“[The] CBI is vigorously pursuing its investigation. My commitment to Parliament [in this regard] stands. I have a feeling that someone has taken money. The inquiry is at a crucial stage… We will not show mercy to anyone, however big and powerful, who has gone against the integrity pact,” he said.
Probed about the possibility of acquiring ‘Black Shark’ torpedoes from Italian company WASS, a subsidiary of Finmeccanica, Mr. Antony said the deal is not final, yet.
“Nothing has happened so far. We will proceed only as per the law. We are waiting for the inquiry [against Finmeccanica subsidiary AgustaWestland] to be over,” he told.
Referring to the alleged atrocities on Sri Lankan Tamils, Mr. Antony said India stands in solidarity with them and the government is trying to help them within confines. He also commended the Indian judiciary for playing a significant role in the return of the Italian marines who are charged with killing two innocent Indian fishermen.
“Our action has been internationally acclaimed and proved correct,” he remarked.
