A Delhi court today directed the CBI to expedite the investigation in the 1984 anti-Sikh riots case allegedly involving Congress leader Jagdish Tytler and file a progress report.
The direction was passed by the court of Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate (ACMM) Amit Arora, after the agency informed it that one more month was needed to conduct a lie detector test on controversial arms dealer Abhishek Verma, a witness in the case.
The court directed the CBI's superintendent of police, who appeared before it in pursuance to its February order, to speed up the probe and file the progress report by May 21, the next date of hearing,
