Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Subramanian Swamy who filed a caveat in the Supreme Court, urging it not to pass any order without hearing his side in the National Herald Case, said on Tuesday said that Congress vice-president Sonia Gandhi and party vice-president Rahul Gandhi are out of luck now as the apex court won’t intervene with the trial process. Further clearing his stand, Swamy said that he will point out previous judgments where the Supreme Court has never entertained when two courts have held there is a prima facie case. Swamy further said that there is also some indication that they have taken a loan of Rs. one lakh from a company, where the owners confessed it was an entry-based company which indicates it was black money. He said there should be another legal case on it, adding that he might ask the High Court to say that CBI and Enforcement Directorate should also be in this case. Apart from the Gandhi’s, the court also dismissed the pleas of Congress treasurer Motilal Vora, family friend Suman Dubey and party leader Oscar Fernandez, who had moved the High Court for quashing of summons to them by a trial court. On 26 June, the trial court had issued summons to the Congress leaders on Swamy’s complaint. Swamy has complained about cheating.
