CBI lets off Pawan Bansal after he says “God promise”

Third post on Faking News in three days. Here's hoping the spree continues!

A CBI Spokesperson has revealed in a press conference today that ex Railway Minister Pawan Bansal was let off as an accused from the railway postings bribery scandal after he said, “God promise! I did not do it!”
“We have clear CCTV footage of the statement made by Mr. Bansal,” the spokesperson said. “So we have decided to let him go as per the proviso in the CBI Rule Book which allows politicians to be let off on saying ‘God promise’ and er… as per instructions from Madamji.”

When asked why the same proviso was not applied in other cases such as that of the DMK leader Kanimozhi who was jailed after being chargesheeted by the CBI, the spokesperson said, “Aiyyo! She kept saying something in her Tamil accent and we could not understand anything… so we chargesheeted her. She finally said ‘God promise’ in court, I think, which is why she has bail now.”

Questioned on the case of Narendra Modi’s possible chargesheeting in the Ishrat Jahaan encounter, the spokesman said, “We are reviewing the case right now. Narendraji Modiji said ‘Bharat Maata kee kasam’ and we are checking with Madam… er… the Rule Book if that can be construed as ‘God Promise’.”
However, as per the spokesman, Mr. Modi might have had his fingers crossed behind his back and a crack team from CBI was reviewing the footage of his interview to check the same, as “everyone knows fingers crossed behind back makes the ‘God promise’ invalid.”

This Faking News reporter asked the spokesman if the proviso applied to politicians’ relatives as well. “No no no no,” he replied emphatically, “It is much tougher for relatives. They have to say ‘Red Cross, fingers crossed, same to you, back to you, with no returns.’ It is not as simple.”
