New Delhi: Former Union minister Dayanidhi Maran and Sun TV owner Kalanidhi Maran have been grilled by the CBI in connection with the agency's probe into the controversial Aircel deal.
Marans' questioning comes close on the heels of CBI grilling Ralph Marshall, a top director in the Malaysia-based telecom firm Maxis, on his links to the Maran brothers.
Dayanidhi as telecom minister is believed to have arm-twisted Aircel to sell 2G licenses to Maxis.
Soon after Aircel got the licences in December 2006, its owner Maxis is said to have made investments in Dayanidhi Maran's family-owned business.
