The judgment came as a celebratory one to both Raja and Kanimozhi. The judgment read, “Some people created a scam by artfully arranging a few selected facts and exaggerating things beyond recognition to astronomical levels.”

The case relates to the decision of Raja to award 122 telecom licences in 2008 at the rates which were in 2001, which according to CAG estimates resulted in presumptive loss of up to Rs 1.76 lakh crore.

The others who were acquitted included prominent businessmen Ravi Ruia, Anshuman Ruia, IP Khaitan, Shahid Balwa, Vinod Goenka, Sanjay Chandra, former telecom secretary Siddharth Behura, and RK Chandolia, who served as PS to Raja in the Telecom Ministry.
