A Special Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) court in Delhi on Friday sentenced former Haryana Chief Minister Om Prakash Chautala to four years’ rigorous imprisonment and imposed a fine of ₹50 lakh on him after finding him guilty of amassing assets disproportionate to his income.
Special Judge Vikas Dhull had on May 21 convicted Chautala in the disproportionate assets case registered by the CBI in 2006, finding him guilty of charges under Sections 13(1)(e) and 13(2) of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988.
The court had found Chautala guilty of amassing ₹2.81 crore (103%) in assets disproportionate to his known sources of income at the time.
