CBN arrest vs rest

I am not debating on who is guilty, who is not among CBN and Jagan. It is more about the due process of the law. In Jagan's case before arresting CBI had filed charge sheet with volumes of of data with specific details on money flow. In CBN's case CID's response is more of we think.. or he/she told.. If they have done some homework before arresting CBN it would have been more compelling. 

 

Details and timeline of the case against Y S Jaganmohan Reddy: (Read the above link for full context)

*The CBI has been investigating the case following a High Court order on August 10, 2011, based on a petition filed by former state minister P Shankar Rao, ..

There is a difference between quid pro charges and loss to exchequer. 
 

Jagan’s charges are primarily quid pro, the investigation could find some links but did not conclude the final money trail as the parties involved claimed they did so in their own capacities. The beneficiaries include Penny Cement, India Cements, Aurobindo group, Sagar Cements etc. 

After Jagan was taken into custody, chargesheet was filed after thorough investigation.

In CBN’s case, CID had just asked for the custody. Let them interrogate and only then one would know the situation. 

If someone wants to compare CBN’s case, one should do so with Laloo Yadav’s Fodder scam as charges files are under similar sections and has evidences of withdrawal from govt treasury.

Hmm..above time line says that initial 3 charge sheets were filed before even questioning Jagan. There is more to story?

Lalu story is even longer one right. It took years of CBI enquiry, high court intervention, Supreme Court intervention, couple of months drama with Governor approval, anticipatory bail and finally arrest. There was detailed chargesheet against him too before arresting him. 

Even in current liquor mafia case, everyone involved were questioned multiple times before arresting

I am not aware of any white collar case where someone was arrested without prior enquiry.

CBN arrest is more comparable to Karunanidhi arrest. In that case also arrest happened almost immediately without enquiry and all. Seems AP is following TN in revenge politics.
