Maha probes Wadhawan picnic fracas, CBI enters scene

The Maharashtra government on Friday ordered a probe against a senior IPS officer who allegedly permitted the scam-tainted Wadhawan brothers and others to travel from Khandala to Mahabaleshwar flouting state and national lockdown norms, state Home Minister Anil Deshmukh said.

In a double whammy, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) rushed to enter the scene by shooting off an email to the Satara Superintendent of Police not to release the scam-tainted Wadhawan brothers – who were absconding since a month – without its prior permission.
