SC relief for Trinamool's Abhishek Banerjee in school jobs scam; stay on High Court order

Supreme Court

New Delhi: The Supreme Court today stopped the central agencies' probe against Trinamool Congress (TMC) leader for his alleged involvement in the West Bengal teachers' recruitment scam. 

The Top Court also stayed the Calcutta High Court order directing West Bengal Police not to file an FIR against Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and Enforcement  Directorate (ED) officers probing the recruitment scam. 

A bench of Chief Justice DY Chandrachud and Justices PS Narasimha and JB Pardiwalam will be hearing the case on April 24, reports Dynamite News correspondent. 

A single-judge Calcutta High Court bench on April 13 had directed that Abhishek Banerjee and Kuntal Ghosh, another accused in the case, can be questioned by the ED and the CBI.
