Bhubaneswar: Supreme Court-appointed Special Investigation Team (SIT) on black money will submit its ninth interim report to the apex court within 15 days, the panel’s vice-chairman Justice (Retired) Arijit Pasayat said in Bhubaneswar Monday.

After coming to power in May 2014, the Narendra Modi government, in its first cabinet meeting, approved the appointment of the SIT as directed by the Supreme Court.

“We have already submitted eight reports to the Supreme Court while the ninth report will be submitted within 15 days,” Justice Pasayat told reporters here.

To a question, he said it would not be the last report as work is going on.

The SIT vice-chairman came to Bhubaneswar Monday on a three-day visit to Odisha.

He is likely to hold a meeting of officers from IT, ED, Customs and Excise and Central Board of Indirect Tax departments in Cuttack August 28. Director of ED Rahul Navin is also scheduled to attend the meeting.
