The court direction came after Delhi Police informed it that copies of documents filed along with the charge sheet have been supplied to the accused.

Delhi Police in July 2013 charge sheeted Cronje, Rajesh Kalra, Sanjeev Chawla, Manmohan Khattar, Sunil Dara and Kishan Kumar for cheating and criminal conspiracy. 

Proceedings have been abated against Cronje, who died in a plane crash in 2002.
