 KOLKATA: The judge of a special CBI court here on Saturday set a 21-day deadline for the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to show the progress it made in its probe into the alleged multi-crore recruitment scam in West Bengal.

The judge was especially critical of the CBI for not arresting the government employees named as beneficiaries in the alleged recruitment scam yet. "Barring two cases, the progress of the probe in the other related cases is extremely demoralizing. Is this a civil matter? How long will you be able to keep the accused behind bars in the name of investigation process? Take some concrete steps," the judge told the CBI counsel. IANS
