Till a few years before they traded charges of email hacking, IPS officer Sanjiv Bhatt and Gujarat additional advocate general Tushar Mehta had been close friends, their relationship going back decades. Their families would vacation together, their kids go to the same school, and Bhatt’s wife considers Mehta a brother, having known him since the time Bhatt was courting her.
Bhatt, a 1988-batch officer now suspended amid a public confrontation with the Gujarat government over the post-Godhra riots, had complained to the Economic Offences Wing in Delhi only weeks earlier that his email account was being hacked by a Gujarat government “agent”. Last week, Mehta complained to the police that Bhatt was hacking into his email.
In the latest set of affidavits he has filed in the Supreme Court, Bhatt cites extensively from mails in Mehta’s account to back up his allegations against the government. He says he had “accessed” Mehta’s account. Mehta did not respond to calls to confirm how close they had been as friends.
