The five-judge HC bench took up hearing in the case, refusing the CBI’s prayer to adjourn the matter. Representing the CBI, Solicitor General of India Tushar Mehta prayed before the HC bench to adjourn hearing in the case, as the investigating agency has filed a special leave petition before the SC.
The five-judge bench of the HC, however, decided to commence hearing since the SLP is yet to be listed for hearing before the SC.
