A Delhi court is likely to pronounce on Wednesday its verdict in the case of alleged illegal recruitment of over 3,000 junior basic trained (JBT) teachers in Haryana, in which state’s former chief minister Om Prakash Chautala and his MLA-son Ajay Chautala are facing trial.

Special CBI Judge Vinod Kumar had reserved his judgement on December 17, 2012 in the case after conclusion of final arguments by the CBI and the defence counsel. Out of the 62 accused, six had died during the trial while one had been discharged by the court at the time of framing charges.

The court had earlier found prima facie evidence against Chautala, his son Ajay and 53 others, including IAS officers Vidya Dhar and Sanjiv Kumar, who too was made accused by the CBI after he exposed the JBT recruitment scam.
