CBI plea against HC order to let Punjab take back blasphemy cases

Published on: 

The Supreme Court on Thursday dismissed the CBI’s plea challenging the Punjab and Haryana High Court order by which it had last year refused to interfere with the Punjab Government decision to take back all sacrilege cases from the Central probe agency. A Bench of Justices R F Nariman and S Ravindra Bhat dismissed the CBI’s plea on the ground of delay.

“...Special Leave Petitions are dismissed on the ground of delay. However, the question of law is left open. Pending application stands disposed of,” the Bench said.
