It is understood that the issue is to be taken up by CBI Director Vijay Shankar and Director of Prosecution S K Sharma.
Interestingly, Singh has also cited a 2004 circular issued by Sharma to all CBI superintendents asking for lists of all prosecutors who were yet to be notified as per provisions of the Criminal Procedure Code.
This circular says, “Any trial, appeal, revision etc being conducted by a law officer, special counsel, retainer counsel before any Court without notification under Section 24 or 25 of the CrPC is void.”
