NDTV
Partha Chatterjee has been arrested on Saturday by the central agency in connection with its probe into the alleged school jobs scam.
The Enforcement Directorate moved the Calcutta High Court on Sunday challenging a lower court order of sending arrested West Bengal minister Partha Chatterjee to state-run SSKM hospital.
Justice Bibek Chaudhuri, after hearing arguments by lawyers representing the ED and Chatterjee, reserved judgement in the matter.
The central agency challenged a Bankshall Court order which directed that Chatterjee be taken to the state-run SSKM hospital. It also claimed that the lower court can direct adequate treatment of a person but cannot specify a particular facility.
The ED moved a revision petition before the high court and sought permission for an urgent hearing during the day.
