Narada Scam Case Hearing : CBI vs TMC MLAs - Live Updates From Calcutta High Court

Singhvi : Supreme Court has directed to release even hardened criminals taking note of COVID.
Singhvi : Your lordships were given an impression that entire Calcutta was in flames, whereas they were arguing virtually before the Special Court.
Singhvi : He tells your lordship reply, rejoinder, to keep them in jail by hook or crook, more by hook than crook.
Singhvi : Principles of natural justice were violated. Aged persons are arrested in a 2014 sting. The stay order was obtained by complete false representation and suppression of facts.
Singhvi : No court can stay interim-bail without giving notice to the accused.

Solicitor General : There was an orchestrated attempt to frustrate the course of justice. There were unprecedented extraordinary circumstances.
Solicitor General : Allow me to file response to the recall applications. The question which the country is asking is whether the highest court of this state would require a premier investigating agency to respond to their allegations.
Solicitor General : They (4 TMC leaders) they are not in jail. They are in hospital. They should be in jail, that is my case.
