The Commission for Investigation of Abuse of Authority (CIAA) Tuesday summoned ex-communications minister Jaya Prakash Prasad Gupta for interrogation relating to his property holdings that were assessed to be more than his earnings.
Gupta was released on a bail of RS. one hundred thousand from police custody on December 31. He had been held in custody for two months on charges of misappropriation while giving license for Kantipur Terrestrial Television.
Sources at the CIAA said Gupta was summoned one more time after it had doubts about the property details that he submitted to the Judicial Commission for Investigation of Property (JCIP). Gupta was interrogated for seven hours. He has been asked to report back at the CIAA on January 14.
