A hearing was held today in the high court in the case of baiting MLAs. The state government has challenged the single bench verdict handing over the case to the CBI.
The bench heard arguments on that petition today. The judgment was reserved by the High Court. Advocate Dushyant Dave argued on behalf of the government that the investigation of the case should not be handed over to the CBI.
He said that the SIT is conducting the investigation in this case in a very transparent manner. He said it is not appropriate to change the investigating agency citing the CM’s press meeting as the reason.
The arguments of the defendants, in this case, have already been concluded. Dave asked for a deadline for written arguments in this case. In this context, the High Court has given him a deadline of the 30th of this month. The High Court ordered to submit it within the 30th of this month.
