The Supreme Court on Wednesday declined an urgent request to hear a plea challenging the police action against students during Cockroach Janta Party's (CJP) protest march in Delhi, with Chief Justice of India (CJI) Surya Kant saying the court was not inclined to examine video footage at the mentioning stage.
The matter was mentioned before a bench comprising CJI Surya Kant and Justices Joymalya Bagchi and V Mohana, with the petitioner's counsel seeking an early listing of the case, citing alleged police brutality against students during the protest.
