The petition, which is likely to come up for hearing on Monday, alleged that Bassi's statement to media that the police would not oppose Kanhaiya's bail plea, may influence fair and transparent investigation in the matter as well as court proceedings.
It also claimed that police was "playing at the hands of some political parties under whom Delhi Police is working" and said Bassi should be directed to clear his views on the statements given by him to the media on February 16 and 17.
It also referred to Bassi's statement in which the police chief has said they were not giving a clean chit to Kanhaiya.
Seeking a direction to prohibit Bassi from influencing the probe, Pandey said the police should not be allowed to not oppose Kanhaiya's bail plea as other co-accused, who are on the run, may not be brought before the court if he gets bail.
Besides Bassi, Pandey has made Kanhaiya, the Centre and Delhi government as respondents.
