Overview
- The bench directed the Joint Commissioner (Crime) and the investigation officer to file reply affidavits and to produce the case diary, with the next hearing set for December 11.
- The judges questioned police claims about recording statements, noting conflicting assertions regarding son Zeeshan Siddique and the unrecorded statement of widow Shehzeen Siddique.
- The court rejected verbal assurances and asked for case‑diary entries after prosecutors cited WhatsApp chats and call records to show contact with Zeeshan.
- Counsel for the petitioner said Zeeshan’s protection was cut from Y+ cover to two constables after the plea was filed, and the court sought a fresh threat assessment.
- The widow’s petition alleges the probe ignored a builder and political nexus—naming Mohit Kamboj, Prithvijeet Chavan, Ashok Mundra, and Vijay Thakkar—while police earlier charged 26 under MCOCA and named Anmol Bishnoi as a wanted accused.
