News Desk: In a surprising development, Lt. Gen Tejinder Singh has dropped his case against Army Chief Gen VK Singh in the Supreme Court, saying he would approach the appropriate forum.

 

Tejinder Singh had moved the Supreme Court against the Army Chief, after the latter claimed that the former tried to pay a Rs 14 crore bribe to him to clear the Tatra -Vectra deal in 2010.

 

The Army Chief's claim was corroborated by Defence Minister AK Antony, who had received the complaint at that time. Although he asked the Army Chief to take action, Gen VK Singh did not pursue the matter further for unknown reasons.

 

Lt. Gen Tejinder Singh sought a CBI probe against the Army Chief on charges of professional misconduct, saying Gen VK Singh had authorized bugling of offices of the Defence Ministry. He had also filed a defamation case against the Army Chief.
