The Supreme Court directs the CBI to take over all Vyapam cases in three weeks. This comes after the CBI today filed an affidavit in the Supreme Court regarding the Vyapam investigations and sought three more weeks to take handover of all cases. The CBI also sought three weeks to engage special CBI prosecutors in these cases and requested the SC to allow Madhya Pradesh Government's public prosecutors to continue until then, so that the routine hearings of the cases don't get affected.
As per the CBI, 212 cases of the Vyapam cases are identified till now, out of which 119 cases are yet to be investigated and charge sheets are to be filed. CBI also sought clarification that whether it had to take over the 119 pending cases or all 212 cases including charge sheeted ones.
