NEW DELHI: Rajya Sabha MP Kanimozhi on Friday moved the Delhi High Court, averring that the charges against her in the 2G spectrum scam were false and sought that they be quashed.Her counsel Balaji Subramaniam pleaded that his client had no role in granting 2G licences and there was no evidence to charge her in the scam. Another contention of Kanimozhi was that she was only a shareholder of Kalaignar TV, and as a shareholder she could not be made liable under criminal law.She was arrested because Kalaignar TV, partly owned by her, allegedly served as the landing place for a Rs 214-crore bribe for the then telecom minister A Raja. The money was sent, according to the CBI, by Swan Telecom which had won an out-of-turn telecom licence from Raja in 2008.
