Mumbai, Feb. 19 --
The Special Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI)
court on Thursday sentenced a CBI constable to
one-year in jail on charges of taking out a file from the CBI
custody without any official permission.
The court also imposed a fine of Rs 2,000 on him.
According to CBI, in June 2003, they found that a
file related to a bank fraud was missing from the office.
The cupboard, where the file was kept was opened with
a duplicate key. After investigation they found that it
was their own constable Sunil Tibe who, using a duplicate key,
opened the cupboard and had taken the file out.
Initially CBI had alleged that he might have taken money
from the accused in the fraud case to give out the details
of the case. CBI later charged him with criminal misconduct
and for dishonestly breaking open receptacle containing property.
He was charge sheeted in 2004.
The motive of the accused could not be established.
