A special bench consisting of Justice Sidharth Mridul and Justice Rajnesh Bhatnagar will hear bail appeals in the Delhi Riots Conspiracy Case.

“At the outset we must let you know that we will hear the appeals but you will have to give us some time to sort our rosters. We would hear the appeals today and on Friday and then we would assemble in the post-lunch session every day,” the bench said.

The hearings before the regular benches, of which they are a part, were being affected since the judges had to sit in a special combination to hear the Delhi riots cases, which led the two judges to consider whether they should sit in a special combination.

However, the judges made their agreement to hear the cases while seated at a special bench clear today.
