A bench of Justices DY Chandrachud and Surya Kant warned the accused that it would dismiss his plea for quashing the cases registered against him if he does not comply with the earlier orders of the court.
The Supreme Court on Monday took serious note of the non-compliance of its earlier order by a crypto-currency scam accused of not sharing his username/passwords with the Enforcement Directorate and said, "We are not a district court where you can play with the orders".
A bench of Justices DY Chandrachud and Surya Kant warned the accused that it would dismiss his plea for quashing the cases registered against him if he does not comply with the earlier orders of the court.
"Why have you not shared your username and password when it was recorded in our earlier order? We will dismiss your writ petition if there is non-compliance. The Supreme Court is not some district court, where you can play with the orders. You yourself had made the statement that you will share the username and passwords and now there is non-compliance. This is not a Tis Hazari Court", the bench told advocate PC Sen appearing for one Ajay Bhardwaj.
The bench asked the counsel to inform his client that he has to share the details with the ED and then it will hear him.
