New Delhi: The Supreme Court Wednesday refused to entertain a plea of sacked IPS officer Sanjiv Bhatt seeking to examine 11 additional witnesses in a 30-year-old custodial death case.
A vacation bench of Justices Indira Banerjee and Ajay Rastogi said that a three-judge bench had already passed an order May 24 on a similar plea and therefore it cannot entertain the petition.
Senior advocate Maninder Singh, appearing for the Gujarat government, said that final argument is over in the 1989 custodial death case and the trial court has reserved its verdict for June 20.
