Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma of the Delhi High Court recused herself from hearing a plea by Karti P. Chidambaram concerning bribery allegations linked to Diageo Scotland. The petition relates to a CBI corruption FIR accusing him of involvement in alleged payments made to influence government decisions in favour of the company.
Delhi High Court has reserved its decision on delaying trial proceedings against Lalu Prasad Yadav and family in the CBI’s land-for-jobs case. The plea claims the FIR lacks sanction and is politically motivated.
