<p class="wp-block-paragraph"> The Supreme Court on Wednesday observed that there was no doubt that the issues raised by former Mumbai police commissioner Param Bir Singh in his plea against Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh were “quite serious”.<br> The court, however, allowed Singh to withdraw his plea seeking direction for an “impartial and fair” CBI probe into alleged corrupt malpractices of Deshmukh.A bench of Justices Sanjya Kishan Kaul and R S Reddy granted liberty to Singh to approach the Bombay High Court with his grievances.<br>The top court said there is no doubt that the matter is “quite serious” but the petitioner should first approach the Bombay High Court.</p>
