A Special CBI Court to shortly start hearing the revision plea of the CBI against the order of a Magistrate asking the agency to withdraw its look out circular against Aakar Patel in a FCRA case.
Mir: At 12.30 he was board the flight again. Court had said at least what was expected that the IO would co-operate. @Aakar__Patel#FCRA#CBI
Mir: Immigration informed that they had received no information from CBI regarding withdrawal of LOC. When we tried to call the investigating officer ( IO) he deliberately switched off his phone.
Mir: Time and again you could have moved District Judge and asked for hearing. Court is there your honour. It's is open even at 2am. Courts doors can be knocked any time.
Mir: When this order was passed, the prosecutor could have mentioned to judge Kumar that we want to challenge the order. 'Aap ye kehne me saksham the, aapne nahi kaha'. Many times a plea is dismissed and there is an extension for challenging the order.
Goel: We are here to bother my lord for an order of learned ACMM.
We have two grouses – our right to issue LOC interfered with. ACMM made remarks and observations against the agency which were unwarranted and should be quashed.
Goel: this is a situation where there is a gap between end of investigation and beginning of procedure before court.
Goel:application said that we have filed chargesheet and we called him to join investigation. There was no material to say that someone was biased without which the finding shouldn't have come.
Order: Due opportunity be given to respondent to file a reply if any. In the meantime, it is necessary that the cause is not frustrated. @Aakar__Patel#CBI#FCRA
Order: During course of argument it was submitted that since loc was quashed there was no violation of court order.
Order: Stay of operation of the impugned order vis a vis directions to cbi director for compliance wrt observations made in the later part of impugned order especially wrt to written apology.
