Calcutta HC refuses urgent hearing to ex-minister Aroop Biswas seeking protection from coercive action

Wait 5 sec.

The Calcutta High Court has declined an urgent hearing for former minister Aroop Biswas. He sought protection from police action regarding chaos during a Lionel Messi event last year. Biswas failed to appear before investigators after being summoned. The court allowed his lawyer to file a petition challenging the FIR.
