The Delhi High Court stayed the trial court proceedings against industrialist Bina Modi and Advocate Lalit Bhasin in a case concerning the alleged assault of Samir Modi.

The order was passed by Justice Saurabh Banerjee while hearing petitions filed by Bina Modi and Bhasin challenging the summons issued to them by the trial court on February 10, 2026.

Issuing notice in the matter, the Court granted four weeks’ time to the Additional Public Prosecutor to file a status report and directed that notice be served on Samir Modi through the investigating officer. The Court further instructed all parties to submit written synopses, not exceeding five pages, at least a week prior to the next date of hearing.

Pending further consideration, the Court ordered a stay on the trial court proceedings. The matter is now scheduled to be heard on July 29.
