The Supreme Court on Friday asked an advocate, who has filed a petition seeking a court-monitored CBI probe into the deaths of protesters during the anti-Sterlite rally in Tamil Nadu, to mention the matter for urgent listing on Monday 28.
At the outset, a Bench comprising Justices AM Khanwilkar and Indu Malhotra said that the matters seeking urgent listing for hearing be mentioned on May 28.
Advocate GS Mani, who filed the PIl on the Tuticorin violence, urged the court that it was a “very serious matter”.
To this, the Bench said, “All mentioning will be on Monday (May 28).”
When the lawyer insisted further, the Bench observed, “this is not the way you address the court”.
The plea has also sought registration of an FIR for the alleged offence of murder against Tuticorin Collector, Superintendent of Police and other police officials.
