[Param Bir Singh VS Anil Deshmukh]"Don't View Yourself So High, Law is Above You":LIVE UPDATES From Bombay High Court

Nankani- Here there are serious allegations, its a question of the entire force. 

"Justice should not only be seen to be done, it should be done."

Nankani refers to a judgement in the Saradha Scam 

CJ Datta- In the Saradha Scam, there were FIRs in Assam, Bengal, Bihar...

Court states the SC stepped in as an interstate inquiry was required. 

Nankani says there is one last document he wants to rely on. 

Refers to a part of the press release by Anil Deshmukh on 20th March, 2021, where he asks the CM to conduct an unbiased and fair inquiry. 

Nankani- For us it would be the CBI

Court asks about the station diary 

CJ Dutta- WE WILL NOT RISE TILL THE DOCUMENT COMES

Nankani answering the axe to grind statement 

Nanakani says his complaint shows he had complained much before his transfer, as well. 

CJ Datta - Why should we exercise our jurisdiction at your instance? Even prayer B is not maintainable.

Court says that ParamBirSingh had an axe to grind against the minister. 

Nankani- Rashmi Shukla didn't.

Adv Nanakani - Both, on my complaint which makes out a cognisable offence and Rashmi Shukla...It shows the idea is to procrastinate, evidence will be destroyed. 

AG objects to these statements. 

Nanakani says he did not have any other remedy

CJ Datta - If a person of the rank of the police commissioner says this, what about the general public?
