The Supreme Court on Thursday sought a response from CBI on petitions filed by Reliance Telecom and the other accused in 2G spectrum allocation scam seeking recall of its order by which other courts were barred from hearing in the case.
A bench of justices GS Singhvi and KS Radhakrishnan said the issue raised by the accused needs to be heard before taking up other pleas challenging summoning of 13 witnesses including Reliance ADAG chairman Anil Ambani and his wife Tina Ambani.
It also sought a response from Janata Party president Subramanian Sawmy and NGO Centre for Public Interest Litigation on whose plea the apex court is monitoring the CBI probe in the muti-crore rupee scam.
The court asked all the parties to file their affidavits within four days.
