Leave petition disposed; prior direction to file affidavit on investigating officer change by 16 Oct stands; bail impact at hearing
SC disposed of the special leave petition, leaving intact the HC direction that an affidavit addressing the change of the investigating officer be filed by 16 October 2023 with an advance copy served on the petitioner. The court indicated that whether the IO change affects the merits of the bail application will be considered at the bail hearing.
Petition heard and papers perused. Because the petition is "still pending before the High Court," the Court held that "we see no reason to interfere at this stage." Noting the nature of the prayer in the High Court petition, the period of custody undergone by the petitioner, and repeated adjournments, the Court requested the High Court to "consider and dispose of the matter, preferably on the date when it is presently listed i.e. 16.11.2023." The special leave petition "stands disposed of." All pending application(s) also stand disposed of. The order confines itself to non-interference at the Supreme Court stage while directing prompt adjudication by the High Court in light of custody and delay.
