SC reserves verdict on former MLA's plea in Rahul case

October 01, 2012 17:45

The Supreme Court today reserved its verdict on a plea by a former Samajwadi Party MLA seeking to set aside the directions issued against him by the Allahabad high court in a case of alleged illegal confinement of a girl in which Rahul Gandhi's name was dragged.

Kishore Samrite, a former MLA from Madhya Pradesh, has challenged Rs 50 lakh fine imposed on him by the high court for approaching it with these allegations.

The high court on March 7, 2011 had also directed the CBI to register a case against Samrite and to find out as to under what circumstances the PIL was filed.
