The Supreme Court on Wednesday directed the Enforcement Directorate and Delhi Police to submit details of criminal cases against directors of Unitech Ltd to ensure a speedy trial. A bench of justices JB Pardiwala and KV Viswanathan said a special court would be created to hear these cases exclusively. "No further delay should be caused," the bench remarked.
The court asked where the money deposited by homebuyers had gone, noting that confusion in the law was benefiting the accused. The bench posted the matter for further hearing on September 30. Around 22,000 homebuyers have been waiting for houses booked with Unitech for several years. A government-appointed board has since taken over management of the real estate firm.
Indian Opinion Analysis
Both sources report the same court hearing verbatim. Neither outlet provides any framing beyond the courtroom exchange. The absence of critical or favourable spin means coverage is uniform wire-style. The real implication is procedural: the court's impatience with delays, it will create a special court, signals that the Unitech criminal cases may now move faster. The September 30 hearing will show whether the agencies comply.
