New Delhi: On the July 27 ruling of the Supreme Court, upholding certain powers of the Enforcement Directorate regarding the arrest, investigation and attachment of property under the PMLA (Prevention of Money-laundering Act), the apex court has agreed to review it, Times of India reported, citing various news agencies.

A bench led by Chief Justice of India NV Ramana said that prima facie, the two items of not providing Enforcement Case Information Report (ECIR) and negation of presumption of innocence (bail, not jail) needed to be relooked.

The top court ruled on July 27 that providing the accused with Enforcement Case Information Report is not mandatory and justified that ECIR is an internal document of ED, which cannot be equated with FIR.

The review petition was filed by senior advocates Kapil Sibal and AM Singhvi, arguing that the whole judgement needed to be reconsidered. But Supreme Court stated that only two items from the judgement would be reviewed.

Meanwhile, Solicitor General Tushar Mehta said that review is not the same as a writ petition and argued that all issues in the judgement could not be done so.

The top court allowed Congress MP Karti Chidambaram's plea seeking an open court hearing of his petition that sought review of the July 27 judgement.
