The Rouse Avenue court has taken a firm stance by issuing a notice to the Director of the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) to appear in person over the non-filing of a crucial report. This development relates to a defacement case involving former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.

The ongoing legal proceedings stem from an FIR filed against Kejriwal, ex-MLA Gulab Singh, and MCD councillor Nitika Sharma, all accused of defacing public property in Dwarka. Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate Neha Mittal has mandated the Director's presence on June 28.

The court's decision follows unfulfilled directives, dating back to a May 23 order for the FSL to examine a CD critical to the case. Despite being duly served with a notice, the FSL Director failed to present the needed report, intensifying the court's demand for accountability.
