On the contrary, the court itself questioned former Jharkhand CM Hemant Soren, who approached the Supreme Court against the ED.
The Supreme Court said, haven’t you gone to the High Court, why have you come here? The Supreme Court has refused to hear his petition.
Let us tell you that his lawyer Kapil Sibal appeared in the court on Soren’s behalf.
The bench of Justice Sanjeev Khanna and Justice Bela M Trivedi said on Hemant Soren’s petition that he should have gone to the High Court before coming directly to the Supreme Court.
Meanwhile, Soren’s lawyer Sibal said, we are struggling with the case of a Chief Minister. Justice Khanna said, the court is open to everyone. If we allow one person to come directly like this then everyone will have to give.
The Supreme Court said that the courts are open to all and the High Court is also a constitutional court. Let us tell you that the High Court had also refused to grant relief from arrest to Hemant Soren on technical grounds.
After his arrest, first he remained missing for 40 hours and after this Champai Soren was made the leader of the legislative party. He can take oath today.
