              New Delhi: 
              The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) Monday registered two 
              new FIRs in its ongoing probe related to allocation of coal blocks 
              and raided 16 places in seven cities across the country, an agency 
              official said.
 The First Information Reports (FIR) were registered separately 
              against two companies -- New Delhi-based company Green 
              Infrastructure Pvt Ltd (now Athena Infra Projects Pvt Ltd) and 
              Satna (Madhya Pradesh) based Kamal Sponge Steel & Power Ltd -- 
              regarding misrepresentation of net worth during coal blocks 
              allocation.
 
 Six directors, some public servants, and some unknown persons 
              related to Green Infrastructure have been named in the FIR.
 
 "The directors have been identified as M.S. Ramkrishna, Yugandhar 
              Meka, Allure Raju Sitarama, Vemuri Ramesh, Parthasarthy Commandur 
              and Prasad N.," said a CBI official.
 
 Three directors, an accountant, some unidentifed public servants 
              along with other people have been named in the FIR against Kamal 
              Sponge Steel & Power Ltd.
 
 "Company's three directors -- identified as Pavan Kumar Ahluwalia, 
              Kamaljeet Singh Ahluwalia and Prashant Kumar Ahluwalia, chartered 
              accountant Amit Goyal and some unidentified public servants have 
              been named in the FIR," said the officer.
 
 The raids were conducted in 16 places in Hyderabad, Visakhapatnam, 
              Secunderabad (all Andhra Pradesh), Rourkela (Odisha), Satna, 
              Jaipur, and Delhi, officials said.
 
 A preliminary enquiry to examine the irregularities, if any, in 
              the allocation of coal blocks during the period between 2006 and 
              2009 was registered on a reference from Central Vigilance 
              Committee (CVC), in June this year. Earlier, the CBI had 
              registered seven cases in this regard.
