The Delhi High Court on Tuesday dismissed an AAP Government plea seeking initiation of contempt proceedings against ACB chief MK Meena for allegedly violating the court’s order by removing an SHO of the anti- graft body.
“The contempt case is dismissed,” a Bench of Chief Justice G Rohini and Justice Jayant Nath said.
The AAP Government had alleged that Meena “blocked” work of the Anti Corruption Branch (ACB) and violated the court's order to “act” in accordance with the law.
Earlier, the High Court had observed that “nothing remains” in the contempt plea against Meena since the AAP government's challenge on the issue of curtailment of the powers of the anti-graft body has been dismissed.
