Raju: if you don't argue a case saying there is further investigation, the delay is attributable to you. If chargesheet is filed prima facie there is an offence made out and at that stage, the accused can't say it will wait till the investigation is over. Essentially they are saying wait for further investigation so that charges are modified

J Kumar: according to them, you are filing chargesheet intermittently

Raju: they can't wait till other evidence come. It may or may not come. Chargesheet was filed

J Kumar: Umar Khalid was not there in first

Raju: he came in the second,

J Kumar: their grievance is if you keep filing chargesheet the delay is attributable to you

Raju: you can't look at something that may come to delay arguments on charge. Refers to a judgment. There is no delay on the part of the prosecution.

J Kumar: from 2023 to 2024

Raju: if 17k existed in hardcopy, we gave them softcopy but they say they want hardcopy. As for Umar khalid, he knew riots were to take place and he wanted to create alibi. He brough tickets although it was expensive.
