Irshad Ali, who was recently acquitted of terror charges after an 11-year trial by a Delhi Sessions Court, has moved the Delhi High Court seeking a departmental inquiry against “erring” Special Cell officers involved in probing the case he was involved in.

“…Direct the respondent to forthwith conduct a departmental enquiry under the direct supervision of the commissioner in an expeditious manner against the erring police officials… and consequently take departmental action,” the writ petition in the court said.
