New Delhi: The Justice K.U. Chandiwal Commission, set up to probe allegations of corruption levelled against former Maharashtra home minister Anil Deshmukh by former Mumbai police commissioner Parambir Singh, has given Deshmukh a “clean chit”, the Free Press Journal reported.


On Tuesday, April 26, the commission submitted its report on the probe to Maharashtra chief minister Uddhav Thackeray and home minister Dilip Walse Patil, which was 201 pages long and included 1,400 pages of annexures.


Retired Justice of the Bombay high court Chandiwal was appointed to lead the probe on March 30 last year after Singh, in a letter addressed to the chief minister and other high-ranking officials, accused Deshmukh of running an extortion racket wherein he asked police officials to collect Rs 100 crore from bar and restaurant owners every month.


Singh’s allegations in the letter were reportedly made on the basis of statements by the then assistant commissioner of police Sanjay Patil and then assistant police inspector Sachin Waze.
