A petition filed by the widow and son of a murdered Congress leader has led to notices being issued to several individuals. The notices were issued in response to an appeal challenging the acquittal of these individuals. A division bench has directed the accused and the government to file their responses.

The case involves the murder of a Congress leader and his driver, who were shot dead in 2006. Further details about the case and the appeal are available. The accused include a former home minister and several others.

The victim's family has alleged involvement of a senior politician in the assassination.
