| VIP chopper scam: Bank accounts |
| VIP chopper scam: Bank accounts of former Air Force chief SP Tyagi frozen

| The bank accounts of former Air Force chief SP Tyagi and many others accused in the VVIP chopper scam have been frozen by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) today.
Mr Tyagi has been charged with corruption and conspiracy by the CBI, which says he and his three cousins were bribed to swing a 12-helicopter contract in favour of Anglo-Italian defence firm AugustaWestland (AW). The Tyagis have denied wrongdoing in the deal.
Those whose accounts have been frozen include the Indian agents of Finmeccanica, the parent company of AW. This move is significant in that it is perhaps an indication that the CBI, which so far has not admitted to having clinching evidence that the kickbacks went all the way to the former Air Chief Marshal, could have found new leads in the case.
