#RheaChakroborty
The matter is being heard by Justice Sarang Kotwal.

Adv Satish Maneshinde: Investigation is illegal for want of jurisdiction.

ASG: Copy of Petition not served to NCB

Maneshinde: We have served twice

#RheaChakroborty
Satish Maneshinde recounts that Rhea has been charged in the drugs case stating that she had procured drugs for consumption by Sushant Singh Rajput

All cases in relation to case re death of #SushantSinghRajput should be transferred to CBI, the SC has said: Maneshinde adds
Maneshinde: NCB has no jurisdiction to conduct this investigation

NCB case ought to have been transferred to CBI, he adds. Referring to the Supreme Court order, he asserts that SC has said any case relating to the case ought to be transferred to the CBI.

#RheaChakroborty
Maneshinde: If ASG wants to reply to the petition, he may choose to do so.

ASG: No service upon me. I will take a copy from my learned friend.

Maneshinde against reiterates that he has served copy.
ASG: I do not want to make an issue of the service
Maneshinde: NDPS is an Act under which CBI can investigate.

Section 27A should not be attracted (on merits of this case)

I will circulate compilation with all relevant orders and judgments to all.
Justice Kotwal: You may file a physical copy of the compilation bailable and non-bailable issues need to be addressed.
Maneshinde urges that he may be allowed to supply scanned copies since they are quite bulky.
Court remarks that the lawyers will have to appraise the Court on whether it is bailable or non-bailable offences charged, and whether Section 37 of NDPS Act will apply etc.
ASG Anil Singh: I will come on 29th with a clear stand on the bailability of the issue.

I have gone through all judgments (referred to by Maneshinde), but I need time to come to a stand
#BombayHighCourt says it will take up the bail applications filed by @Tweet2Rhea and Showik Chakraborty on September 29.

Justice Kotwal: On 29th, all the parties can start from the beginning. You will have to address the court on all the issues.

Sr Adv Madhavi Divan: There are students from Kalahandi and other rural areas who will not be able to appear for the exams on 8th and 14th May since elections are on. It can be on 7th and 13th may.

#caexams #SupremeCourt #LokSabhaElections2024Image
Divan: We are not asking for a bulk postponement. If there is a bunch of candidates from Rajouri. Now they can only come by public transport and with security issues it is impossible to travel and public buses also withdrawn during elections. Hostels are also being asked to vacate. One we are asking postpone and if not possible then atleast allow an out option so that one does not suffer if they are not appearing on May 8 and May 14
#caexams
Divan: Other option can be to increase centres. Delhi, Mumbai students will not suffer. But those coming from north east etc who need to travel states have to suffer. Petitioners are candidates who will not be affected but this plea is for the public interest.
