NEW DELHI: The CBI, probing the multi-crore scam of Satyam Computer, is likely to file a chargesheet soon against former Chairman Ramalinga Raju and others, a development that would lead to the beginning of the trial of those involved in the financial fraud.

According to sources, the CBI has nearly completed its probe and may file a chargesheet in the first week of April, before the mandatory 90-day period lapses since the arrest of the accused.

The agency is also preparing Letters Rogatory in regard to the Satyam probe, which would be sent to a number of countries seeking information on financial transactions by the firm and Raju, besides his family, sources said.





The CBI, which has set up a Multi-Disciplinary Investigation Team, including officials from the Income-Tax Department, Enforcement Directorate, RBI, among others, now says that the money involved in the scam is much more than what was stated by Raju in January.

"We feel that there is more than what meets the eye. Raju knows a lot and it seems he has just confessed to a part of it," said a source, adding that this was the reason why the agency has moved an application before a local court in Hyderabad seeking permission to subject Raju to a lie-detector test.
