A Delhi court is likely to begin hearing from July 11 arguments on framing of charges in the high-profile 2G spectrum case in which DMK MP Kanimozhi and former Telecom Minister A Raja are among the accused.
Special Judge O P Saini, who is dealing exclusively with the 2G case, today said the arguments on framing charges could commence from July 11 and warned the prosecution and the defence that it will impose a fine if they fail to complete the process of scrutiny and supply of documents at the earliest.
"From next Monday (July 11), we can start arguments on charge (in the case)," the judge said after defence counsel Majid Memon asked the court about the tentative schedule for beginning arguments on framing of charges.
The judge also asked the CBI and the defence counsel to expedite the process of scrutiny of documents so that the arguments could commence at the earliest.
"Court can impose fine if this process (supply of relied-upon documents) is not completed," the judge said.
Most of the 17 accused apprised the court that all the documents that the prosecution has relied on have been supplied to them.
