The Supreme Court on Wednesday restrained the Centre from taking any immediate action against Enforcement Directorate official Rajeshwar Singh, probing the multi-crore Aircel-Maxis case and the 2G spectrum scam, following some complaints lodged against him.

The court’s direction came after Mr. Singh alleged conspiracy over filing of “frivolous anonymous complaints” against him with the Revenue Secretary saying these were being entertained by the ED.
