The Supreme Court sought the Centre’s response on Wednesday to a PIL seeking an SIT probe into alleged receipt of foreign funds by senior advocate Indira Jaising when she was holding the “sensitive post of additional solicitor general” during the UPA government from 2009 to 2014.
Responding to the developments in court, NGO Lawyers Collective, in a release signed by Jaising, said the petition was intended to victimise her for taking up the case of a dismissed woman employee of the SC who has levelled allegations of sexual harassment against the CJI. The case was “obvious victimisation of her (Jaising) as she has taken up the issue of procedure adopted in relation to the allegation of sexual harassment against the CJI”, the release said.
