MUMBAI: The Supreme Court (SC) recently dismissed an appeal filed by Charansingh Thakur to question a notice from Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) for him to participate in an ‘open enquiry’ into ‘disproportionate assets’ allegations made in 2018, against him. The SC said holding of a “discrete/open enquiry, at preregistration of FIR stage in the case of allegation of corrupt practice of accumulating assets disproportionate to his known sources of income, cannot be said to be per se illegal.’’ The SC bench of Justices D Y Chandrachud and M R Shah who passed the judgment said, an enquiry at pre-FIR stage is permissible and also “desirable,’’ in cases of ‘disproportionate assets’ “only to ascertain whether cognizable offence is disclosed or not.’’
