The CoI, headed by Lt Gen S K Jain, spent over four-and a half hours questioning Sayal, who had earlier served in the Directorate General of Ordinance Services, army sources said.
Some of the senior officers in the dock, including suspended Additional Director General of Weapons and Equipment Maj Gen P S K Choudhary, had identified Sayal and Murgai as having introduced them to the Tehelka sting team posing as representatives of a fictitious arms firm.
The sources said Murgai, a key figure in the expose, had still not returned to his Vasant Vihar house, where the CoI has served summons on him to appear before it. If he continues to elude the inquiry, the CoI might use other avenues to force him to come overground, the sources said without elaborating.
They said the CoI might take up detailed grilling of Gen Choudhary and four other senior officers, including Maj Gen M S Ahluwalia, Maj Gen Satnam Singh, Brig Iqbal Singh and Col Anil Sehgal in connection with the expose.
