Relief For Lakshya Sen, Supreme Court Stays Coercive Action Over Age Fraud Allegation Case

The Supreme Court issued notice in a Special Leave Petition filed by Indian badminton player Lakshya Sen, challenging the Karnataka High Court’s order rejecting his plea to quash an investigation into the allegation of fabricating birth certificates to participate in the underage badminton tournament. A bench of Justices Sudhanshu Dhulia and K. Vinod Chandran issued notice and stayed coercive steps against them. The matter will now be heard on April 16.
