SC does not intervene in Calcutta HC order to hand over Ram Navami violence probe to NIA

The Supreme Court on Friday did not intervene in an order of the Calcutta High Court handing over the probe into incidents of violence during Ram Navami celebrations in West Bengal to the National Investigation Agency (NIA).

A Bench of Chief Justice D.Y. Chandrachud and Justices P.S. Narasimha and K.V. Viswanathan deferred the hearing in the case to a date after summer vacation.

“We have not stayed the High Court order and will take up the matter after summer vacation in the month of July,” the court told Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, appearing for the NIA.
