New Delhi, Feb 14: The 2G spectrum allocation scandal is getting murkier with every passing day. As if the alleged involvement of the ministers and bureaucrats in the telecom department was not enough, there are now reports of another home ministry official being involved in it.

According to a report by the Times of India (TOI), the New Delhi police has filed a charge sheet against IAS officer Ravi Inder Singh, who was formerly posted in the home ministry and his associate Vineet Kumar for passing on vital information to DB Realty and several other companies.

According to TOI, the charge-sheet said that, "Vineet Kumar (CMD of Kolkata-based Temptation Food Pvt Ltd) was in touch with Ravi Inder Singh to get the file of DB Realty cleared from the home ministry.
