The Supreme Court (SC) has sought a response from the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on a plea against a Jharkhand High Court order that a resolution professional appointed under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) is a 'public servant' and can be tried under the PC (Prevention of Corruption) Act.
A SC Vacation Bench of Justices A.S. Bopanna and Prashant Kumar Mishra issued the notice to the CBI on a plea challenging the April 5 order of the High Court.
"Issue notice to the respondent on the Special Leave Petition," the plea said.
