Earlier also the court had deferred the order by a month till December 12, as 20 accused in the case, who are lodged in Tihar jail, could not be brought to the court premises due to lawyers’ strike. The lawyers’ strike was due to clash in the Tis Hazari court complex on a minor argument between a lawyer and police.
