The report was submitted in a sealed cover before the division bench of Justice A M Khanwilkar and Justice A R Joshi who today posted the matter for hearing on August 17.
After going through the findings, the judges asked public prosecutor Revati Dere to address the court on the report submitted by the DGP.
The bench also asked the prosecutor to make a copy of the report and submit it to registrar (judiciary). The judges also directed Dere not to show the report to anyone as it is confidential.
The report was filed by the DGP three months after the high court had ordered a probe into the role of seven IPS officers on a petition filed by Chitra Salunkhe, former Vice Principal of Siddharth Law College in South Mumbai.
The petitioner alleged that the officers "shielded" their colleague K L Bishnoi, a 1985 batch IPS officer, who is accused of clearing final year LLB examination with the help of the then acting principal I A Inamdar, without appearing for the practical examination held on March 12, 2005.
On Salunkhe's complaint against the duo, the seven IPS officers had conducted an inquiry into the matter.
Salunkhe later approached the high court seeking action against the senior cops alleging that they submitted "false" reports to their superiors in order to "protect" Bishnoi. (More)
