Panaji: After nearly
three years of delay, investigating authorities have finally
managed to record the statement of Swedish model Lucky Farmhouse,
whose video footage uploaded on the internet had exposed the
police-politician-drug mafia nexus in Goa.
Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) Deputy Inspector General
Pravin Salunke said the statement had been recorded by the Swedish
police last week and had been passed on to the federal
investigation agency by Interpol.
"She (Farmhouse) has deposed in the Swedish language. We need to
translate the entire statement and further investigate the case,"
Salunke said Friday.
A letters rogatory had been issued through a local court on the
request of the CBI to the Swedish police with a list of questions
which Farmhouse has responded to.
Three years back Farmhouse's videos uploaded on www.youtube.com
showing her former boyfriend and drug dealer Yaniv Benaim alias
Atala boasting of his contacts to the police, had laid bare the
notorious police-politician-drug mafia nexus here.
After the videos hit the media here, Atala was arrested along with
seven other policemen who were arrested and suspended from
service.
The Opposition had accused then home minister Ravi Naik's son of
being part of the drug nexus and demanded a CBI probe into the
affair.
