New Delhi, January 16: The Supreme Court on Monday directed the Pulivendula MLA Y S Vijayamma to withdraw her petition seeking transfer of the hearing on her petition against TDP President N Chandrababu Naidu in from AP High Court to any other HC.
A bench comprising Justice B S Chavan and Justice T S Thakur observed that it was not right to doubt the integrity of any court.
Hearing the petition seeking transfer of cases against Chandrababu Naidu to any other Court, the apex court said “Either you withdraw it or we will dismiss it outright.”
The bench observed “When your petition is being heard and a judgment is awaited, you are seeking the transfer of the case which tantamounts to denigrating the country’s judicial system. Either you withdraw it or we will dismiss it outright.”
While filing Special Leave Petition, Vijayamma said, she had no faith in the AP High Court and feared that she might not get due justice there on her petition demanding a CBI probe into the alleged amassing of wealth by Naidu during his regime as the chief minister.
Earlier, a single judge of the AP High Court heard her petition and ordered a CBI investigation on the alleged misdeeds of Naidu.
The High Court reserved its final judgment on the issue.
