The Supreme Court on Thursday said it will first decide on the preliminary objections raised by the Centre and then go into the facts of the Rafale fighter jet deal case.
A bench headed by Chief Justice Ranjan Gogoi wrapped up the hearing on preliminary objections by the Centre that review petitioners in the Rafale jet deal case cannot rely on privileged documents obtained illegally.
It will be known later as to when the order will be pronounced on the issue.
The top court asked the petitioners seeking review of its order to focus on the preliminary objections regarding admissibility of the leaked documents.
