Coalgate: CBI not to file closure reports on its own, SC told

CBI has contended that in regular cases, it cannot take the opinion of the CVC as it would be contrary to the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) which makes it mandatory for the probe agency to file charge sheets in competent court with all materials and it would be like outsourcing the judicial work.

The court, which posted July 8 as the next date of hearing, also asked the CBI and Enforcement Directorate to place before it by July 7 the status report on probe till June 30.
