Delhi Police on Friday issued fresh notices to three lawyers who despite being summoned for two consecutive days, did not turn up before the investigators in connection with the attack on journalists, students and teachers of JNU in Patiala House court on February 15.

"This is the third time the police have sent them notices, asking them to join investigation. If they do not respond this time, we are likely to move court," a senior police officer said.

While one of the three lawyers has been identified as Vikram Singh Chauhan, who led the groups of attacking lawyers on Monday and also on Wednesday defying Supreme Court instructions, names of the other two have not been disclosed by the police.

Notices to them were first issued on Wednesday in which they were summoned at Tilak Marg police station by 3 pm but they did not appear, following which similar notices were again served in the next day, and for the third time on Friday.
