Allahabad, April 17 The Allahabad High Court today dismissed a Public Interest Litigation seeking directions to the government of India for doing the needful with regard to the unaccounted money allegedly stashed in Swiss Banks and other"tax havens"abroad.

A Division Bench comprising Chief Justice Chandramauli Kumar Prasad and Justice Dilip Gupta, while dismissing the PIL filed by two city-based organisations People&aposs Political Front and Azadi Bachao Andolan, also slapped the petitioners with a cost of Rs 5,000 for"wasting the court&aposs time with frivolous litigations".
