The division Bench of Justice Debangshu Basak and Justice Shabbar Rashidi has kept the judgment reserved. At the time of filing the report, it was not clear whether the court's direction in the matter would surface later in the day or some other day.

Once the judgment in the matter surfaces, it will be clear whether both the petitions, one by CBI and the other by the West Bengal government, will be admitted, or any one of the two will be admitted.
