"The trial has not commenced. Even the charge sheet has not been filed.
It does not happen anywhere in the world. We are sorry," a three-judge
bench headed by Chief Justice H L Dattu said.
Senior advocates Soli Sorabjee and KTS Tulsi, appearing for the marines, said that even the Central government lawyer has no objection to extension of stay of Latorre on health grounds.
"The Solicitor General may not object but we want the system to work," the bench also comprising justices M B Lokur and A K Sikri, said adding, "Let him come. Let the charge sheet be filed. You know that the charge sheet cannot be filed in the absence of accused. We aren't going to allow the application."
Sorabjee said that Lattore had heart surgery scheduled on January 8, 2015 in Italy and he may be permitted to stay further for a period of two more months. Later, the counsel for Italian marines withdrew the applications.
