#SupremeCourt to hear plea by conman Sukash Chandrashekhar seeking to be shifted out of #Tihar jail

Vacation Bench of Justices Surya Kant and JB Pardiwala to hear matter
While the ED had opposed his plea, the Supreme Court ordered that he be shifted to another prison as deemed appropriate

barandbench.com/news/supreme-c…
At the last hearing, the top court had asked the respondents/ED to furnish a list of jails that he could be shifted to.
Sukash sought to be shifted to a jail outside Delhi, preferably one in Bengaluru.
Hearing starts.

#Tihar #conman
Senior Advocate Basant R appears for Sukash.

Bench: Last time we asked you to file an affidavit.

Basant: Have filed. Let me explain my prayer (for jail to be outside Delhi).

Bench: Don't get into that. We haven't received the affidavit.
Basant: Seek to be transferred to a jail in Bangalore.

Bench: Mr Raju (for the ED) have you received a copy.

ASG SV Raju: Yes. Lordships may keep it tomorrow.

Bench: There is no such extreme urgency.
Basant: He is being extorted.

ASG: He's running an extortion racket himself, once we became strict he has complaints.

Order: List on 13th July.
Basant: Everyday living under dear my lords.
Bench: Don't worry they won't touch you after Justice Bopannas's order.
Basant: There is a prayer pending to modify that order also. They have offered Mandoli which is a bit far-fetched.

Bench: Once it goes before Justice Lalit Bench, he will take a view.

Basant: Worried that once IA comes up it will ...
ASG: Bail was rejected by that Bench.
Bench: Justice CT Ravikumar Bench also passed a speaking order. If before us we will examine. Mr Basant, btw we're not on arguments. Why don't you go to jail in Gurgaon.

Basant: Please my lords. Let it be Port Blair but not in Delhi.

ASG Raju reiterates conman's antics.
Bench: 13th July is not far away. Justice Lalit will hear it.

Basant: My humble submission is that after it was listed in that Bench, it has been dragging on.

ASG: I'll say what's fair and unfair. Grateful my lords.
