Sr Adv Kapil Sibal mentions: This is a serious matter i seek to mention. A pil is filed in Jharkhand HC (against CM & other individuals) which is not yet admitted, ED comes and hands over sealed cover
Sr Adv Kapil Sibal mentions: I object to it, in these proceedings FIR isn’t registered. HC has looked at sealed cover & they’ve now said they’ll transfer it to CBI. I’ve told them now I’ll mention it here.
Bench- somebody else filed PIL?
Sibal: Yes against CM, individuals etc. CBI ED made parties. We said how can you take these documents on record!
Sr Adv Mukul Rohatgi: Court is on leave, there’s nothing urgent in this case. Everyday is being listed at 2 pm.
Rohatgi: Sealed cover documents are being filed, not shown to us. Pls list tomorrow
Bench- okay tomorrow
