The Bombay High Court on Monday stayed the trial proceeding in actress Jiah Khan's suicide case till June 7.
Earlier on May 20, a Mumbai sessions court adjourned the hearing in the case till June 10.
The move came as the Bombay High Court will on June 7 hear a plea by Jiah's mother Rabia Khan requesting that this case be handed over to the Special Investigation Team (SIT) for interrogation.
The sessions' court was expected to frame charges against actor Sooraj Pancholi, the key accused in the case, but adjourned the hearing after Rabia's request.
Jiah's mother had earlier moved the Supreme Court, which directed her to approach the Bombay High Court.
