Supreme Court declines Sanjiv Bhatt’s plea

New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Wednesday declined to consider a plea by Sanjiv Bhatt, sacked IPS officer from Gujarat, seeking fresh examination of witnesses in a case of custodial death against him. Bhatt moved the apex court challenging a Gujarat High Court order, which declined his request to summon certain additional witnesses for examination during the trial in the case. The Gujarat government informed the apex court that the trial court has already reserved judgement in the 30-year-old custodial death case for June 20.
