In an application filed before the court, the probe agency said, “in the event a Preliminary Enquiry undertaken by the CBI discloses commission of offences by persons concerned, a Regular Case is registered and investigation in accordance with law is undertaken.”

The CBI said that in the matter of registration of case, it “does not make a reference either to the Central Government or the State Government.” On a PIL by advocate Viswanath Chaturvedi, the court had ordered a preliminary enquiry into allegations against Mulayam Singh Yadav, his sons-Akhilesh and Prateek and daughter-in-law Dimple Yadav.
