Mumbai Key papers pertaining to the scam-ridden Adarsh housing society are missing from the Urban Development Department here, police said on Saturday.

Police have registered a case of theft after a secretary of the department, Gurudas Bajpe, gave a written complaint to the Marine Drive police last night about the missing documents.

"We have registered a case against unknown persons. According to the UD department officials, several papers from the 10 files on Adarsh society were missing," DCP Cherring Dorje said.

The disappearance of the papers was brought to the notice of CBI, which is investigating the multi-crore scam.

"The department had submitted to us 10 files pertaining to Adarsh society. During perusal we realised that four noting papers were missing from the files. We brought this to the attention of the department," a senior CBI official said.

The papers include the remarks of the state government officials and chief minister, the official said.

"Investigations are on. We are questioning authorities of the Urban Development department," Dorje said.

The Adarsh society, originally meant to be a six-storey structure to house Kargil war heroes and war widows, was converted into a 31-storey building, violating a number of laws. The flats were allotted to bureaucrats, politicians' relatives and defence officers.

Missing Files by Rajan on 17 May 2011

This is a really shameless Congress Govt. The Inquiry of the Adarsh Scam should be carried out quickly or else the Corrupt ministers like Ashok Chawan, Deshmuk and Gidwani involved in the scam will also disappear just like the Files and hard disks.

Missing? Or intentionally removed/ destroyed? Do the politicians think that people are idiots? Bihar has shown the way how the corrupt politicians are to be treated. A lesson for all other States. The wave has started to teach a lesson to the corrupt politicins irrespective of any political party. Wake up Indians-wake up.

This is on expected lines.When the top Govt. functionaries are culpable you don't expect the Govt. investigating agencies to bring out the truth and prosecute them.The cover up is on expected lines and you will be reporting similar stuff on other scams lke CWG and 2G also as the top UPA honchos can't afford the guilty to be identified and prosequted as the high and mighty are in the line of fire.

What you expect otherthan such news by Nandan Pendse on 27 Nov 2010

Common man is nothing but big fool. Earlier he must have felt that CM had to go so something positive will happen in ADARSH scam enquiry. But now colours of false enquiry are slowly coming out. Today some important papers gone missing. We after some time definately will listen other stories how everybody is escaped from such big scam. Mera Bharat Mahan.
