Senior Counsel Harish Salve

On being asked by the parties to submit their objection, Senior Counsel Harish Salve said that he was also a part of the case and had no objection to CJI hearing the case.

The Supreme Court today reserved its order on a batch of petitions in the alleged Hathras gang rape and murder case. The issues under consideration by the court are: who would monitor the CBI, if the case should be transferred and which agency will provide security.
