New Delhi, Friday, August 28, 2009: The petition filed by CBI against the Kerala High Court directive to grant bail to three accused in the sister Abhaya murder will be heard in the Supreme Court today.

The petition filed by CBI mainly demands scrapping of some statements made by the Kerala High Court against CBI while granting bail to the three accused in the sister Abhaya case.

The Supreme Court Division bench of DK Jain, and HL Dattu will also hear another petition moved by CBI challenging the transfer of the Abhaya murder case from CBI Delhi unit to Kerala unit.

Both the petitions were postponed for today on last Friday after the CBI’s additional solicitor general Harin P Rawal failed to turn up.
