The Supreme Court on Thursday constituted a three-judge Bench to hear afresh the anticipatory bail plea of Teesta Setalvad and her husband in the case of alleged embezzlement of funds for a museum at Ahmedabad’s Gulberg Society that was devastated in the 2002 riots.

The Supreme Court issued a notice listing the matter for hearing on April 21 before the three-judge Bench. However, the names of the judges will be known only later. A two-judge Bench on March 19 had referred the plea to the larger Bench.
