The Narada tapes probe report which was due on the 16th of April may take the Anti-corruption Bureau of CBI more time. The Anti-corruption Bureau of CBI may require additional time to complete the Narada tapes probe report, the deadline for which is April 16, a senior official of the agency said. Earlier, the High Court had given three days' time to CBI to complete the report on Narada tapes controversy which allegedly showed several Trinamool Congress MPs, MLAs and ministers accepting cash for exchange of certain favours. Later when both TMC and the state government moved the Supreme Court challenging the HC order, the apex court upheld it and gave CBI an additional 27 days' time for completing the probe report. The order also stated that it was not mandatory on the part of CBI to submit the report to the HC.
