Bhopal : It is not the best of time for Chief Minister Kamal Nath, who has now encountered a major sex racket in Madhya Pradesh that spells trouble with its alleged clientele, starting with politicians it also has entrapped bureaucrats and journalists. The dilemma is such that the CM has changed the SIT chief over and over again.

Sanjeev Shami, the head of the Special Investigation Team (SIT) probing the Madhya Pradesh honey trap scandal has been transferred.

The Kamal Nath government has even rejigged the SIT probing the sex racket. This will be the third time SIT and its head has been changed after the sensational honey trap scandal broke out in the state.

This has raised many questions about the intention of the government which had vowed to bring out the truth.Rajendra Kumar, the 1985 batch IPS officer, has been made special DG (cyber crime) and new chief of the three-member SIT while Additional DGP Milind Kanaskar and Ruchivardhan Mishra, senior superintendent of police Indore, will be the other members of the SIT.

Sanjeev Shami, who had earlier replaced Srinivas Verma as SIT chief, had been probing the case since September 24. He had recovered thousands of video clips, sex chats and audio clips along with a diary which contained secret code words for the high profile 'targets'.

The proverbial 'red book' or the diary, the content of which was leaked to the media, is the latest talking point as it allegedly contains the names of politicians occupying high positions and also some bureaucrats.

As the news of the diary spread, the government issued a new circular to remove Sanjeev Shami as the SIT chief and instead gave charge of the probe to Rajendra Kumar. Sources said that dispute between two officers of the DGP level over the probe in the sex scandal and deteriorating image of the police forced Chief Minister Kamal Nath to take the drastic step to remove Shami from the probe panel head.

Kamal Nath, in the meeting with the Director General of Police and Chief Secretary had reprimanded the police officers for their public squabbling and had expressed his displeasure over the worsening image of the police due to leaks.
