The Supreme Court on Monday told petitioners in Justice BH Loya death case to submit all documents in the top court.
The next hearing has been scheduled for February 2 at 2pm, when the Supreme Court will decide whether an investigation is required in the death of Judge Loya.
The apex court restrained all High Courts from entertaining any petition relating to Justice Loya's death case.
The Supreme Court bench headed by Chief Justice Dipak Misra said that ‘this was a serious matter and that we will look into all documents.’
In the explosive hearing, CJI Dipak Misra got angry when senior lawyer Indira Jaisingh inferred that the Supreme Court is going to gag media. He then asked her to retract and apologise.
The bench got irked when senior advocate Dushyant Dave, appearing for a Bombay lawyers body which had filed a PIL in the high court there, took the name of BJP president Amit Shah during the hearing alleging that everything has been done to protect him (Shah).
"As of today, it is a natural death. Then, do not cast aspersions," the bench said while considering the strong opposition of senior advocate Harish Salve, the counsel for Maharashtra government in the case.
During the hearing, the Maharashtra government told the Supreme Court that a careful and prudent investigation was conducted after the media reports and four judicial officers assured there was no foul play involved. The three-judge bench recorded statements saying Justice Loya died of cardiac arrest, the ANI reported.
Earlier, a bench headed by Justice Arun Mishra had recused itself from hearing two petitions, filed by Congress leader Tehseen Poonawalla and a Maharashtra journalist B S Lone on the issue from hearing and had said that let the matter be posted before "an appropritate bench".
In pursuance of that order these two matters were listed today before the bench headed by the CJI.
The Loya case was one of those which was indicated by the four senior most apex court judges -- justices Jasti Chelameswar, Ranjan Gogoi, M B Lokur and Kurian Joseph -- at their press conference where they had questioned the manner in which sensitive cases were being allocated.
