Bar Council of India (BCI) associate managing trustee Rajinder Singh Rana and former vice chairman Raju Dhanapal Raj were tried before a special CBI court in Delhi yesterday, for allegedly accepting a bribe of Rs 6 lakh to approve Global Law College in Ghaziabad.

Prosoll Law Inc advocate Harsh Kumar Sharma acted for Rana and Raj, and advocate Mohinder Singh Saini acted for the third accused Manish Tyagi before special CBI judge Anju Bajaj Chandna. Tyagi was the member of the advisory council of the Ghaziabad college in 2010 – the time when the offence was allegedly committed.

Public Prosecutor PK Dogra was acting for the state and the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).

CBI judge Chandna charged Rana, Raj and Tyagi for conspiracy under the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and for illegal gratification under the Prevention of Corruption Act 1988.

According to the chargesheet, Rana and Raj had allegedly demanded Rs 15 lakh from the law school’s chairperson BS Satyarthy at the time when the law school had submitted its application for inspection, and had again demanded Rs 15 lakh from Satyarthy when it was time for Rana and Raja to give submit their inspection report.
