Zee Media Bureau

New Delhi: The Supreme Court will consider on February 15 a plea for SIT probe against ex-CBI Chief Ranjit Sinha for his alleged interference in coalgate probe.

"We have to take a call. Either, we have to agree with you (CBI) or with him (NGO's counsel making allegations)," a bench headed by Justice M B Lokur said while posting it for hearing on February 16 when it will also hear the application filed by Sinha accusing the NGO and its counsel Prashant Bhushan of perjury.

The apex court also sought explanation from the Gujarat government for not providing documents to the CBI on allocation of two coal blocks in the state.
