During a hearing, the Supreme Court queried why the West Bengal government was opposing a CBI investigation into allegations against suspended TMC leader Shahjahan Sheikh regarding sexual assault and land grabbing in Sandeshkhali. Justices questioned the state’s move, suggesting that issues raised in the High Court should be addressed there. The court adjourned the case to July, considering the ongoing election phases in West Bengal. The State requested the delay citing crucial information gathering, which the court acknowledged, anticipating a more conducive atmosphere for proceedings in July.
