Judge Loya

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi took a shot at the central government this morning as he made a comment on the transfer of Justice S Muralidhar, the third highest judge of the Delhi High Court, to the Punjab and Haryana High Court, on Wednesday.

The Maharashtra government would consider investigation into the alleged suspicious death of special CBI judge BH Loya in 2014 if it gets any complaint with substantial evidence, a minister said on Wednesday.

The Bar Council of India today added its voice to that of a former High Court Judge, who has written to President Ram Nath Kovind, asking him to "ponder" the Supreme Court collegium's recommendation for the out-of-turn elevation of two judges.

A fresh public interest litigation (PIL) has been filed in the Bombay High Court, seeking an unprecedented seven-judge bench to hear the case concerning the death of former CBI Special Judge BH Loya, a lawyer said on Thursday.
