Black money case: SC asks SIT to submit report by May 12

As petitioner in the case, senior advocate Ram Jethmalani alleged that there was determined effort to frustrate the orders by this court regarding the probe in the black money case and the bench said it would hear his contentions after perusing the status report.

Jethmalani asserted that he was pursuing his PIL in the interest of the nation, prompting the bench to observe: “We are with you on that. We will go through the report first and then pass orders. Don’t worry, we will hear you at length on the next date.”
