The Delhi Police today opposed before a court here the plea of Israeli diplomat attack case accused, journalist Syed Mohammad Ahmed Kazmi, that he should be discharged as the probe agency allegedly did not follow the provisions of the anti-terror laws.
Submitting that the issue of alleged non-compliance with the anti-terror laws is pending before the Delhi High Court, the prosecution said the matter should be "closed sine die".
Appearing before Additional Sessions Judge A K Garg, the prosecution said since the issues whether the probe agency followed the provisions of Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA) and the National Investigation Agency Act are pending before the Delhi High Court in a revision petition, the same cannot be contested before this court.
The prosecution had moved a revision petition in the high court against last year's sessions court's order questioning the power of a magistrate to deal with cases under UAPA.
Additional Public Prosecutor Rajiv Mohan also said the matter should be "closed sine die" or adjourned till the time the high court decides the issues whether the cognizance of the case and the manner in which Kazmi's remands were extended by a magisterial court were bad in law and if they vitiate the proceedings in the case.
