Supreme Court has granted relief to Rajbir Ghuman, Officer on Special Duty (OSD) to Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, by staying his arrest in connection with a case registered by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).
A bench comprising Justice M.M. Sundresh and Justice Prasanna B. Varale directed that no coercive action be taken against Ghuman under the CBI FIR.
However, the court refused to stay the FIR itself, meaning the investigation can continue. The bench also directed the state to cooperate with the investigation.
The order provides relief to Ghuman from arrest while the CBI case remains in force.
