Person facing trial for 35 years a punishment in itself: SC to CBI
The Supreme Court on Friday reprimanded the CBI for its failure to produce a witness in a 1983 case and said "a person facing trial for 35 years is itself a punishment". "This is a case of 1983...we're in 2019 now. Fair trial and speedy trial is for the accused also. That too, you are the CBI," the court said.
