The Orissa High Court allowed a criminal case to continue against a company director accused of not depositing Rs 15 lakh deducted from employees’ salaries for provident fund.

The Supreme Court refused to entertain Indrani Mukerjea’s fresh plea to travel abroad in the Sheena Bora murder case. The bench told her to approach the trial court for any such permission, directing that the application be decided within four weeks. Her move comes after the apex court previously dismissed a similar request last year.
