A bench of Justices B R Gavai and Sandeep Mehta passed the order while hearing Singh’s plea seeking a transfer of the case pending before a trial court in Gujarat outside the state, preferably in Kolkata.
SC asked the Gujarat HC to take a decision within four weeks on a plea filed by the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leaders seeking quashing of the summonses issued to them by the trial court. The bench said in the meantime, the proceedings before the trial court will remain stayed.
