SC refers to another bench plea of AgustaWestland middleman James' plea for release from jail

The Supreme Court has referred a plea of alleged middleman Christian Michel James in the AgustaWestland VVIP chopper scam case to another bench. James is seeking his release from jail, challenging a trial court order and a provision of the India-UAE extradition treaty. He argues that he has completed the maximum sentence possible for the offences for which he was extradited, making his continued detention illegal.
