CBI grills Jagan in assets case for seven hours

YSR Congress chief Jagan Mohan Reddy on Friday walked free after being questioned by the Central Bureau of Investigation for about seven hours in the illegal assets case.

Jagan, who was questioned for the first time in the disproportionate assets case, told the media after the questioning that he would meet the CBI again on Saturday at 10.30 am. 

Jagan said that the CBI had sought clarifications which he provided. "I have answered all the questions which were posed," the YSR chief said.

Jagan, sporting a beard, however, looked relaxed and had a big smile on his face. He spoke to the media briefly.  

He said everything went off well, "it was cool and calm," said Jagan. He, however, hurriedly said bye to the huge crowd and left.

Jagan did not give any indication on whether he would be arrested or not. Even the CBI did not let out this information.  

Jagan would be questioned again on Saturday. Also, he has to appear before the court on May 28. There is talk that he could be arrested after that.
