In an order passed on May 1, Principal District and Sessions Judge Anju Bajaj Chandna transferred the case from the court of Special Judge (PC Act) Jagdish Kumar to Special Judge (PC Act) Mukesh Kumar.
“The ECIR No.06/DLZO-II/2019 (including bail application of the applicant) is withdrawn from the court of Sh Jagdish Kumar, Ld. Special Judge, (PC Act), CBI-16 and is assigned to the court of Sh Mukesh Kumar, Ld Special Judge, (PC Act) CBI-05, RADC, New Delhi for adjudication and disposal as per law,” the Court ordered.
The Principal District and Sessions Judge said that the apprehension expressed cannot be said to be misconceived or misplaced.
“The matter is at its initial stage and no prejudice would be caused to the answering respondent, if case is heard by any other court of competent jurisdiction. Accordingly, it is felt appropriate to transfer the proceedings to some other court. The application of applicant is allowed,” the Court said.
