A five judge Bench of Calcutta High Court is hearing the case concerning the arrest of four senior TMC leaders in the Narada sting case.

A Division Bench had earlier differed on the question of whether the leaders should be granted interim bail, leading the matter to be placed before the five Judge Bench. The leaders were, in the meanwhile, placed under house-arrest instead of jail.

Whereas the CBI moved the Supreme Court challenging this decision, they withdrew the plea after a round of hearing. This hearing also saw the Supreme Court Bench express a disfavourable view of the Calcutta High Court order of May 17 by which interim bail given to 4 TMC leaders in the Narada case by the special CBI court was stayed late at night by the High Court.
