According to latest reports, the Supreme Court on Wednesday stayed a summons issued to former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and five others in a coal scam case.
As reports say, the court also issued a notice to the CBI regarding the matter and sought for its answer within three weeks.
Kapil Sibal said on behalf of Manmohan Singh that Prime Minister has whole powers and his administrative decisions can’t be termed unlawful.
Singh was ordered a month ago to show up in a CBI court on April 8 over allegations of criminal conspiracy and Corruption in the alleged illegal award of a coal field in Odisha.
In his request, Singh battled that there was no criminal plan on his part as layered administrative making process was included all the while.
