Sandeshkhali violence | West Bengal seeks urgent listing of plea in Supreme Court against transfer of probe to CBI

The Hindu  

The West Bengal Government on March 6 sought urgent listing of its plea in the Supreme Court challenging a Calcutta High Court order to transfer to the CBI the probe into an attack on Enforcement Directorate officials in Sandeshkhali on January 5. At the outset, the plea was mentioned by senior advocate Abhishek Singhvi, appearing for the West Bengal government, before a Bench comprising Justices Sanjiv Khanna and Dipankar Datta. Both, the ED and the West Bengal government, moved separate appeals in the High Court challenging a single Bench order which had on January 17 ordered the formation of a joint special investigation team of the CBI and the State police to probe the mob attack on the ED officials. The High Court, while agreeing to ED’s request, also directed that the custody of TMC leader Shajahan Sheikh, who was arrested by the West Bengal Police on February 29 in connection with the attack, be handed over to the Central agency.
