RANCHI: The Jharkhand High Court on Thursday stayed the CBI probe into the case involving students of Dhanbad Institute of Technology (DIT) who were prevented from appearing in examinations, until further orders.
A division bench comprising Chief Justice M.S. Sonak and Justice Rajesh Shankar passed the order while hearing an appeal filed by the state government and the Jharkhand University of Technology (JUT).
The matter has been posted for further hearing on January 29.
During the proceedings, the CBI informed the court that a preliminary inquiry had already been registered in compliance with an earlier High Court order.
