Corporate Affairs Minister Salman Khurshid Thursday denied that the government has asked the Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO) to stop probing the Rs.78,000-crore Satyam accounting scam.

"SFIO is continuing its probe into charges of violation of company law and investigations are in the final stage," Khurshid told reporters on the sidelines of a convention of the Institute of Company Secretaries of India (ICSI).
