TS govt moves SC on poachgate, seeks HC stay
Deccan ChronicleHyderabad: The state government on Tuesday filed an interim application before the single judge bench of Justice B. Vijaysen Reddy of the Telangana High Court, seeking suspension of his order handing over the poachgate probe to the CBI. Chandrachud, senior advocate Dushyant Dave said there was an FIR related to “destabilising the state government.” He said the single-judge bench had ordered a CBI probe and the larger bench upheld it, saying the state government's appeal was not maintainable. In the High Court, Advocate General Prasad appraised the single judge bench about Monday’s judgment of the division bench headed by Chief Justice Ujjal Bhuyan, which had held that the single judge’s orders transferring the probe to the CBI were on the criminal jurisdiction side, and an appeal against such an order lay before the Supreme Court. Prasad said he would make a mention before the Chief Justice bench on Wednesday at 10.30 am and get back to the single judge at 2.30 pm.
