The SIT is expected to ask the 30-year-old whether he was aware of huge sums of money changing hands during transfers of senior police officials by the state home ministry and whether stamp scam prime accused Abdul Karim Telgi had interfered in the transfer process.
Several people, including senior police officials, have reportedly mentioned the existence of a transfer racket in the state home ministry.
There are reports that Inspector Jahid who was attached to the Cyber Cell of the Mumbai Crime Branch and was probing a case involving Telgi was shunted to Nagpur to derail the investigation.
The SIT has already quizzed Director General of Police (CID) T K Choudhary in this connection as he was Additional DGP (Establishment) when Jahid was transferred.
