Imphal, July 20 2016:
A Division Bench of High Court of Manipur comprising Acting Chief Justice RR Prasad and Justice S Serto has today transferred the criminal petition case filed by former JCILPS convenor Khomdram Ratan to another Bench.
The argument hearing of the case which began yesterday continued at the Court from 10.30 am today.
During the hearing, the Advocate General, who is the counsel of State respondents, told the Court that some media houses had 'scandalised' the case.

He also pleaded the Court to take up criminal proceed- ings against the media houses concerned regarding the mat- ter.
The Court however de- cided to continue the hearing stating that the AG could file a petition regarding his com- plaint.
The AG then pleaded the Court to transfer the case to another Division Bench if the Court is not willing to take up criminal contempt pro- ceedings against the media houses in question.
Later, after perusing the arguments of both the sides, the Court ordered to shift the case to another Division Bench.
It may be mentioned that the Court yesterday asked the State respondents to submit the documents of police manual related to declaration of wanted tags.
The petitioner's counsel on the other hand pleaded the Court to quash the wanted tag on Kh Ratan alleging that mandatory and necessary pro- cedures were not followed while members, JCILPS Women Wing volunteers, JAC members, Ra- tan's wife and father and mother of Sapam Robinhood were present at the argument hearing.
Imphal West Additional SP (Law and Order) S Ibomcha, Dy SP (Commando) Imphal West S Sachidananda, SDPO Mayang Imphal Rameshor, Lamphel police station OC Doren and Imphal West women police station OC were also present.
