Delhi High Court Restricts Lokpal’s Investigation Into Properties Linked to Shibu Soren

The Delhi High Court has restrained the Lokpal of India from taking further steps in an investigation related to two properties allegedly linked to Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) president Shibu Soren. The court’s decision came in response to a plea filed by the JMM, which challenged the Lokpal’s March 4 order directing the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to probe the properties. The JMM argued that the Lokpal’s order was beyond its jurisdiction as the inquiry could only be against an individual, not a political party.
