The Supreme Court asks CBI director Ranjit Sinha to file within a week his response on the allegations leveled against him in an application. "Whatever you want to tell us, tell us in black and white," SC tells Sinha.

Last week, the Supreme Court turned down the plea of the CBI Director to gag the media from carrying news stories on documents pertaining to the entry of various people who are under its probe at his residence. A bench headed by Justice H L Dattu, however, said that the issue arising out of visitors' log book at the Director's residence is very "sensitive" and hoped that media would act with some responsibility.

The SC today took the visitor's book in a sealed envelope, submitted by advocate and petitioner Prashant Bhushan into its custody.  Bhushan says he is depositing the visitor's book with the SC since it could be destroyed.

Sinha, meanwhile leaves his residence, evades questions.
