What does this deal mean for India and who will ultimately benefit from it?
New Delhi: For 16 years, India's law enforcement agencies have failed to confirm that Congress MP MK Subba is an escaped murder convict from Nepal called Maniraj Limbo.
Could it be that the CBI has buckled under political pressure?
This is what the Supreme Court told Subba when his case was heard: “It is highly suspicious how you came to India and how you got Indian citizenship. We take a very serious view of it."
The apex court also pulled up the CBI for making a mess of the Subba investigation. For instance, the CBI says: "MK Subba states he was born in Dabgram, but we have no evidence to confirm or refute his claim"
But CNN-IBN Special Investigation shows how Subba, at different times, has claimed four dates of birth and three birthplaces.
The CBI also says it could not locate a key person, A K Subba, to testify on Subba's nationality. "Present whereabouts of AK Subba are not available,” says the document.
However, CNN-IBN traced A K Subba in Sikkim, in just two days.
He now runs his business in Gangtok. The CBI also mentions a Sanjay Raj Subba who petitioned the Nepal King. An excerpt from CBI report: "His brother Sanjay Raj Subba prayed to the King of Nepal for the pardon of M K Subba alias Mani Raj Limbo"
However, Subba denies that the petitioner was his brother.
