The Calcutta High Court in its June 9 order had noted that, "they (CM, law minister and state) have waited for the arguments in the case to be substantially completed before seeking to place on record their pleadings in response."
#calcuttahighcourt #supremecourt #naradacase
Court proceedings have started. Matter to be taken up as Item 35. Currently, court is hearing Item 3
#supremecourt @MamataOfficial @GhatakMoloy
WB Govt has submitted that @MamataOfficial is neither the accused nor the complainant
in the case sought to be transferred by the CBI.
WB Law Minister @GhatakMoloy says unlike the
issue pertaining the bail of the accused persons, wherein the liberty of an individual is at stake, #CBI failed to show any urgency, on account of which the plea seeking transfer of the pending proceedings is moved
Matter to be taken up now
#supremecourt @MamataOfficial @GhatakMoloy
