'CBI FIR Simply Copy-Pastes Param Bir's Petition; This Is Overreaching Court Order': Maharashtra Govt Argues In Bombay High Court

Live Law  

The Maharashtra Government on Monday concluded its arguments in their petition before the Bombay High Court challenging certain portions of the Central Bureau of Investigation's FIR against former state Home Minister Anil Deshmukh and unknown others. Dada cited several instances to demonstrate that Chief Justice Dipankar Datta's bench had ordered the CBI to conduct the preliminary enquiry against Deshmukh on Advocate Jaishri Patil's complaint, which was based on ex-Mumbai Police Commissioner Param Bir Singh's letter to the Chief Minister. Dada, therefore, claimed that the two paragraphs of CBI's FIR, a "copy-paste" from Param Bir Singh's PIL, were not mandated to be investigated as per April 5, 2021, Bombay High Court order and doing so without the state's consent was a flagrant violation of the law. The Challenge In the petition filed through the Additional Chief Secretary of the Home Department, the state claimed that the two paragraphs are inserted in CBI's FIR "to carry out fishing and roving inquiry into the administration of the State Government in order to try and find out some material enabling political groups that are presently not in power in the petitioner state, to try and destabilise the present government in the petitioner State."
