NEW DELHI:

The court told lawyer Jayant Mohan, representing the state government, that the case was triable under the Aircraft Act which gives the sole responsibility related to aviation offences to the Directorate General of Civil Aviation.

The case relates to an FIR lodged at Kunda police station in Deoghar district of Jharkhand against nine people, including BJP MPs, Nishikant Dubey and Manoj Tiwari.
