New Delhi: The Delhi High Court today dismissed a petition seeking a National Investigation Agency (NIA) probe in the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) sedition case in which anti-India slogans were allegedly raised, saying the plea was "premature" as the police is already investigating the matter.
"It is an incident of February 9. Delhi Police is probing the matter. Let the police investigate first. We cannot step in unless necessary," a bench of Justice Manmohan said, adding, "The present writ petition is premature and is dismissed."
