The Naked Truth

The book gives a deep first-hand insight into the CBI investigations, against the people at high places, concealing more and exposing less about the accused VIPs who cannot be embarrassed either in the process or by the findings of the investigation. They are the one who dictate to CBI whether to investigate or not and how to investigate. They only decide on Prosecution or withdrawal and that too under the cover of public interest. The accused thus themselves asume the role of investigator, the prosecutor, and even the judge. Subservient to this dangerous mindset, the investigative and enforcement agencies procure and collect the evidences to re-inforce the pre-determined conclusions. The shade of Government makes no difference.
