Special Judge Gaurav Rao recently issued a stern rebuke regarding the handling of a case under the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA). The court characterized the police's actions as "merely eyewash," citing an unacceptable duration of delay in the legal proceedings. The judge expressed significant dissatisfaction with the pace of the investigation, noting that the lack of progress has hindered the judicial process.

In response to these findings, Judge Rao has directed that a copy of the October 5 order be forwarded to the Delhi Police Commissioner. The court explicitly stated that the situation necessitates a "detailed inquiry" to determine why the case was stalled and to identify the specific officials responsible for the negligence. The order calls for appropriate disciplinary action against the erring investigating officers to ensure accountability within the department. While the court's order is clear regarding the need for an investigation into the police's conduct, the specific details regarding the nature of the MCOCA case itself and the defense's perspective on the delay remain limited in current reporting.
