Hearing on VS’ plea postponed


The Judicial First Class Magistrate Court 1, here, on Saturday posted the hearing on the petition filed by Opposition Leader V S Achuthanandan, requesting to hear his version on the final report filed by the Special Investigation Team on the ice-cream parlour sex scandal sabotage case, to September 11.

The hearing has been postponed owing to the leave of Magistrate P T Prakash. Earlier in July, the court had postponed the hearing to September 1 on the basis of a request made by counsel for Achuthanandan, P Rajeev, to allot more time as the petitioner had not obtained all documents submitted by the investigation team in the court.

The investigation team had given a report in June, stating that no sufficient evidence had been found to charge any person on the allegations that the accused had entered into a conspiracy, influenced the victims by offering money, forged documents, destroyed evidence and fabricated evidence to win the case in 2006.
