The CBI on Friday filed a chargesheet against former IAF Chief SP Tyagi and nine others in the AgustaWestland VVIP chopper case.
The chargesheet filed before Special CBI Judge Arvind Kumar also named others including Tyagi's cousin Sanjeev alias Julie and advocate Gautam Khaitan in the Rs 450-crore chopper deal bribery case.
CBI had alleged that Khaitan was the “brains” behind how the bribe money reached India and how the several firms through which the money travelled came into existence. Sanjeev alias Julie was apparently known to alleged European middleman Carlo Gerosa.
Tyagi, who had retired in 2007, his cousin Sanjeev, and Khaitan were arrested on 9 December by the agency in connection with the case. These accused are currently out on bail.
