Delhi High Court puts on hold adverse remarks against CBI in liquor policy case order

In nominal relief to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in the Delhi liquor policy scam case, the Delhi High Court on Monday put on hold an adverse remark made by a local court while it cleared former Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal, and senior AAP leader Manish Sisodia of all charges.

Acting on a request from Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, the High Court signalled that it would stay the operation of the "prejudicial" remarks made by the trial court against CBI officials in its order.
