Janata Party Chief Subramanian Swamy today told a Delhi court that Union Home Minister P Chidambaram should be made an accused in the 2G case as he had jointly taken the decision of spectrum prices with former Telecom Minister A Raja.

Testifying as a witness in support of his private complaint seeking prosecution of Mr. Chidambaram, Mr. Swamy said former telecom minister Mr. A Raja could not be held guilty alone of the charges that he fixed the price of spectrum licence in 2008 at the prevailing rates of 2001.

Mr. Swamy told Special CBI Judge O. P. Saini that as per a 2003 Cabinet decision, Mr. Raja and Mr. Chidambaram (the later was the then Finance Minister) were empowered to determine the spectrum price jointly.

The court had on December 8 allowed Mr. Swamy to testify himself in support of his private complaint seeking Mr. Chidambaram's prosecution in the case.
