The bench of Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud posed to Senior Advocate Kapil Sibal, representing the State.

'Mr. Sibal, something is very disturbing. The GD entry in regard to unnatural death, UD is recorded at 10.10 in the morning. So, the Police Station is informed that there is an unnatural death. Notwithstanding all this, the securing of the crime scene, seizure etc. takes place at 11.30 at night? What was happening all by then?, Senior Advocate Kapil Sibal asserted that this was incorrect infomation and he claimed that all proceedings were videographed.
