Tamil Nadu Bharatiya Janata Party President K Annamalai unveiled the second audio tape in an ongoing exposé, shedding light on a conversation between former Union Minister A. Raja and ex-Intelligence Chief Jaffar Sait IPS. In the audio recording, Raja and Jaffar discuss strategies to sabotage the 2G investigation conducted by the CBI during the UPA regime. The dialogue delves into manipulating witnesses and accused individuals to influence the outcome of the probe. This revelation is part of a series exposing how the DMK allegedly manipulated the CBI inquiry during the 2G Probe. The first tape involved DMK MP TR Baalu where he connived with MS Jaffar Sait, the former Intelligence Chief of Tamil Nadu during the 2G Scam case hearings in 2010-11

Here is a transcript of the audio file.

Raja: Where are you, sir? 

Jaffar Sait: Tell me sir

Raja: Nothing, it’s good news. Things are going well. 

Sait: Very good, sir

Raja: They came and went. They coordinated it themselves. 

Sait: OK, sir.

Raja: They tackled the issue well. 

Sait: Is it the issue that we discussed?

Raja: Yes, they will make sure it won’t arise again

Sait: yes sir, yes sir

Raja: They are making another arrangement. A person joined yesterday, right? 

Sait: Yes

Raja: He was informed of it. It will not come into the picture at all.

Sait: Who joined yesterday, sir?

Raja: The head of that organisation

Sait: Ah yes yes, AP yes yes

Raja: With our people, we had our Bombay people 

Sait: Very good, sir

Raja: We arrived at a conclusion on what has to be included, what has to be excluded, and what has to be there for formality.

Sait: Yes, sir

Raja: At any cost, the name of the party must not be revealed.

Sait: OK, sir

Raja: You may ask questions, but it should not be harsh

Sait: Yes, sir

Raja: They concluded it that way

Sait: Ok sir, very good, sir, who spoke..

Raja: Swan Unit (Swan Telecom) took over

Sait: Both of them? Ok

Raja: Both of them came in a Benz car, met and left

Sait: OK, sir

Raja: They asked us not to worry, they asked what it was, and we informed them. They asked what the message was. He answered a few questions. He said he would become an approver and asked if he could know more. They said it would be a serious situation if he became an approver. 

Sait: Ok

Raja: They will record your statement if you have anything to say and conclude it in the presence of Harish Salve. 

Sait: They are giving it

Raja: Harish Salve will take over and will ask the statements from their side – how they know Raja, how the minister was met with etc

Sait: If we get the copy, that will be great.

Raja: I will ask them to get a copy

Sait: yes sir

Raja: They bravely came to the house and left. I asked them why, and they said it was ok. They are working with other operators also. 

Sait: Yeah, fine sir, it will be correct

Raja: Between Unitech and Swan, those datacon, videocon and all, they are interacting with them too. 

Sait: OK, sir

Raja: They will explain to them how to face this and everything 

Sait: OK, sir, good

Raja: After that, they will give me the questionnaire. But they will handle it gently. 

Sait: That’s all sir, let us get it done with.

Raja: They didn’t go abroad also it seems. 

Sait: OK, sir

Raja: When going abroad, they wanted to go to the Swiss for Etisalat 

Sait: Yes Yes

Jaffair Sait is also involved in a corruption case. The ED’s investigation found that there were improper allocations of Government Discretionary Quota (GDQ) plots orchestrated by I Periyasamy, who served as the Minister for Housing and Urban Development at the time. Specifically, a plot was allocated to Jaffar Sait under his wife’s name, even though he did not meet the eligibility criteria for such an allocation.

In part one of DMK Files, Annamalai released the asset details of DMK leaders. The second part was a 16 minute video detailing three alleged scams which includes ₹3000 Crore ETL Infrastructure Services Limited Scam, ₹2000 Transport Department Scam and ₹600 Crore Scam in Tamil Nadu Medical Service Corporation.
