KOLKATA: Parallel hearings on three petitions and counter-petitions concerning the controversies surrounding the Enforcement Directorate’s raid and search operation last week at the Indian Political Action Committee office and its co-founder Pratik Jain’s residence are scheduled to be heard by Calcutta High Court’s single-judge bench of Justice Suvra Ghosh later on Wednesday.

The raids were conducted at the I-PAC office in Salt Lake on the northern outskirts of Kolkata, and Jain’s residence on Loudon Street in Central Kolkata.

Originally, the matters had come up for hearing at Justice Ghosh Bench on January 9, which was a day after the ED's parallel raid and search operations took place at these two places.
