The Delhi high court refuses to stay the order of the tribunal on your writ petition. Even then you kept waiting for eight months.<br \/>\n\u201cWe will pass an order asking you to give him permanent appointment with ED,\u201d the bench said, adding that \u201cthis court had trusted this man for conducting the trial. Do you expect him to keep on fighting court cases and investigate the matter.\u201d<br \/>\nIt also clarified that the order of the CAT has to be complied with as the Centre failed to file a special leave petition in the Supreme Court after the Delhi High Court refused to stay the tribunal\u2019s order in the appeal.<br \/>\nEarlier the apex court had said that it will pass an appropriate order after hearing Singh as to whether he wants to continue with the ED or not. Raising the issue of Singh, BJP leader Subramanium Swamy had said that despite the apex court\u2019s May 1 order he had not been reinstated into the investigation and it was not known \u201cwhat powerful element are working\u201d that he is out of the probe.<br \/>\nSingh had sought to recuse himself from the investigation as attempts were being made to destroy the case.<br \/>\nSwamy was one of the petitioners on whose plea the 2G licences were scrapped by the apex court which is monitoring the probe by the CBI and the ED.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Supreme Court on Monday directed the Centre to absorb Rajeshwar Singh, an officer probing the money laundering cases in the 2G scam, as a permanent Deputy Director in the Enforcement Directorate within three days. \u201cThe Central government shall confirm the permanent absorption of Rajeshwar Singh as Deputy Director within three days from today,\u201d a [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":35151,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[20124],"tags":[4557,29719,29720],"class_list":["post-35147","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-court-judiciary-legal-system","tag-justice-h-l-dattu","tag-permanent-absorption-of-rajeshwar-singh","tag-rajeshwar-singh-as-ed"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>SC orders permanent absorption of Rajeshwar Singh as ED Dy Dir - Legal News India - Supreme Court &amp; High Court Updates<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The Supreme Court on Monday directed the Centre to absorb Rajeshwar Singh, an officer probing the money laundering cases in the 2G scam, as a permanent - Get the latest legal news from the Supreme Court, High Courts, and government.
