Supreme Court stays defamation proceedings against Congress MP Rahul Gandhi in a case pending against him in a Jharkhand court over his comments made in 2018 against Amit Shah calling him a “murder accused”.
The court issued notice to the state and the complainant Navin Jha on Gandhi’s petition challenging a February 2024 order of the Jharkhand HC refusing to quash the summons issued to him in the case by the trial court.
