A Delhi court on Monday (June 9, 2025) pulled up Tihar jail authorities for failing to find the files related to security of Christian Michel James, accused in AgustaWestland case.
Special Judge Sanjay Jindal termed the lapse as “serious concern” and directed the DG Tihar jail to locate the same and file a report in the matter by July 7.
The remarks came after the Tihar authorities submitted in the court that the original report sought by the court was “not traceable despite best efforts”.

“Considering the seriousness of the issues raised by the accused and the facts which have come on record during recent hearings on the grievance of James, it is matter of serious concern that the case file of the inquiry on the basis of which report dated August 29, 2019 was given, is not traceable,” the court said.
