Srinagar, Mar 11: The Special Investigation Team of police on Friday quizzed two Jammu based traders to probe their alleged role in the multi-crore rupees sugar scam.
 Sources told Greater Kashmir that two Jammu based traders were questioned for five hours in police station Sadder by SIT this afternoon.

 Meanwhile, police have also served to notice to the wife of one of the prime accused as she is partner in her husband’s company.
 They further said that role of top officials of CAPD Srinagar whose names have cropped up during investigation is also being probed.
