Needless to say, clauses of CBI manual are binding upon the CBI,&#8221; Special CBI Judge Ajay Kumar Jain said.<\/p>\n<p>Directing the agency to return the documents as sought by the Delhi government, he said &#8220;any recognition of absolute immunity and unlimited powers will tantamount to recognition of divine power which no authority on earth can enjoy. The CBI cannot be clothed with divine powers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The court said that CBI manual is binding upon the agency and in the garb of argument that investigation is in progress, it cannot seize documents which are not related to the case.<\/p>\n<p>The judge said if the CBI is not able to disclose the reason why they want to retain these documents, then they have no right to keep them.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;CBI utterly failed to disclose the reasons of retention of the documents in its reply as well as during the arguments before the court. CBI was unable to show any relation of these seized documents with present investigation,&#8221; the court said.<\/p>\n<p>The court in its 36-page order said proceedings intitiated by CBI against public servants appear to be in &#8220;haste&#8221; as no preliminary inquiry was carried out.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In this scenario, when the public servant while discharging his official duty misuses power and when there is no direct allegation of pecuniary advantage, then some sort of preliminary inquiry is required. However in present case, the FIR is registered on oral information, thus proceedings initiated by CBI appears to be in haste,&#8221; it said.<\/p>\n<p>( Source &#8211; PTI )<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CBI today came under a scathing attack from a city court which directed it to return documents sought by the Delhi government seized during recent raids on the office of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwals principal secretary, saying the agency &#8220;cannot be clothed with divine powers&#8221; to flout its own rules. &#8220;The CBI cannot retain the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":38299,"featured_media":38818,"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":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[146,32748,229,31987,117,80,35373],"class_list":["post-41024","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-top-law-news","tag-court","tag-criminal-news","tag-delhi","tag-featured","tag-law","tag-legal-news","tag-return-seized-original-docs-to-delhi-govt-court"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Return seized original docs to Delhi Govt: Court - Legal News India - Supreme Court &amp; High Court Updates<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"CBI today came under a scathing attack from a city court which directed it to return documents sought by the Delhi government seized during recent raids - Get the latest legal news from the Supreme Court, High Courts, and government.
