Congis and Allies celebrated JJ HC acquittal. Then in SC got deflated. Same will be here. — Subramanian Swamy (@Swamy39) 1513836535000

NEW DELHI: BJP leader Subramanian Swamy , the man who exposed the multi-crore 2G spectrum allocation scam, on Thursday said the government must immediately file an appeal against the acquittal of all accused in the nearly decade old case.Moments after a special CBI court exonerated all 19 accused, including former telecom minister A Raja and DMK leader Kanimozhi , in the Rs 30,000 crore 2G scam case, Swamy took to Twitter to air his thoughts on the judgment."Government must prove its bonafides by filing an immediate appeal in High Court," he tweeted.Harking back to former Tamil Nadu CM J Jayalalithaa's acquittal by the Karnataka high court in a disproportionate assets case, Swamy cautioned against premature celebration, reminding that the verdict was later overturned by the Supreme Court and the accused were convicted ."Congis and Allies celebrated JJ HC acquittal. Then in SC got deflated. Same will be here (sic)," he said in another tweet.Previously described as India's biggest swindle, the scam emerged in 2010, when a report by the then Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) Vinod Rai claimed that the 2G telecom spectrum allocation resulted in a loss of Rs 1.76 lakh crore to the national exchequer.The chargesheet filed by CBI brought the loss down to Rs 30,000-odd crore.In a series of letters to then Prime Minister manmohan Singh, Swamy warned him about the scam and also filed a criminal complaint against Raja and others in the Supreme Court.He had alleged that the CBI had "purposely" left out industrialist Ratan Tata, his group companies, corporate lobbyist Niira Radia and some others in the case.Swamy's complaint had sought their prosecution under several sections of IPC including 409 (criminal breach of trust), 420 (cheating), 463 (forgery) and 120 B (criminal conspiracy) and under the relevant provisions of the Prevention of Corruption Act and the Prevention of Money Laundering Act.READ ALSO: 2G spectrum case judgement: What the court said in its verdict
