Sonia, Rahul get breather in Delhi High Court

New Delhi: The Delhi High Court on Wednesday extended the stay on the trial court order summoning Congress president Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi and three others in a case relating to acquiring ownership of National Herald daily.

Justice V.P. Vaish agreed to extend the interim order after counsel for the Gandhis and others expressed their inability to conclude their arguments.

Senior advocate Ramesh Gupta, representing one of those summoned, urged the court to take up the matter on a regular basis some other day because arguments are not likely to conclude today and holidays were beginning on Thursday.
