@capt_amarinder
@myogiadityanath
The Punjab government, arguing against the transfer in front of a bench of justices Ashok Bhushan and RS Reddy, said that Ansari can appear for cases underway in Uttar Pradesh via video-conferencing
Ansari is lodged in district jail Rupnagar, Punjab since Jan 2019 in an extortion case after his alleged call from his UP jail cell to a company CEO in Mohali. He is also accused of 38 heinous crimes in UP but he has been acquitted in most of them due to lack of evidence

CJI SA Bobde led bench to hear Sushant Singh Rajput's sister Priyanka's appeal against Bombay High Court order which did not quash Rhea Chakraborty's FIR against her where it was alleged that Singh along with Dr. Tarun had administering banned medicines to #SushantSinghRajput
Challenging an FIR registered on the basis of this complaint before the Bombay High Court, Priyanka Singh had claimed that the FIR was lodged to “concoct a whole new story entirely different from the statements made” by Chakraborty before the Supreme Court and media platforms.
However, Bombay HC had held "There is prima facie case found against Priyanka Singh and there should not be any impediment against investigation against her."
