Government to name 'snoopgate' judge before May 16: Kapil Sibal

New Delhi:  The UPA government will name a judge for investigating the Gujarat ‘snoopgate' before May 16, Law Minister Kapil Sibal today said and rubbished BJP leader Arun Jaitley's claim that no judge will “lend”

“It will never move forward, just like the Nanavati Commission. Twelve years have passed. We have not got any report.

This is really the track record of the Gujarat government. So we don't expect anything from the state government,” he said.

Sibal's statement comes a day after Jaitley hoped that no judge will “lend” himself to the “political and malafide” exercise keeping in view the cause of judicial dignity.  

He had said that all the judges approached by UPA have refused to be part of the “desperate” exercise as the new government will be in place in a fortnight.
