SC recalls order asking Marans to move HC against summoning

Aircel-Maxis deal: SC rejects pleas of Dayanidhi & Kalanithi Maran against Delhi court's summons

Hours after asking DMK leader Dayanidhi Maran and his brother Kalanithi to move the  Delhi High Court against the trial court order summoning them as accused in the Aircel-Maxis deal case, the Supreme Court on Friday recalled its order, after the CBI said the apex court had ruled that all cases arising out of the 2G spectrum allocation scam probe have to be heard by the top court. Just before the Bench was about to rise for the lunch break, Additional Solicitor General Pinky Anand mentioned on behalf of the CBI that all matters arising out of the 2G spectrum scam probe were being heard by a Bench headed by Chief Justice of India.

The ASG said there is a specific order of the apex court that any matter arising out of the 2G spectrum case has to be heard by it and no other court in the country shall entertain it. Taking on record the submission of the ASG, the bench recalled its order and posted it before the bench headed by Chief Justice H L Dattu on February 9.
