PMLA case shifted to another judge as accused cries 'ED bias'

A Delhi court has transferred a money-laundering case relating to Bhushan Steel from one judge to another after an accused in the case expressed lack of confidence in the judge as one of the accused claimed to have overheard him saying "ED matters mein kaun si bail hoti hai?" Principal district judge Anju Bajaj Chandna of Rouse Avenue court observed that "fairness and equality are hallmarks of criminal justice system" where judges are obliged to decide cases before them with impartiality, integrity, and by ensuring equality of treatment. In doing so, judges are upholding the rule of law, she said.
