A special court will pass an order on NIA's application seeking a one-month extension to file a charge sheet in the Antilia bomb scare-Mansukh Hiran murder case on August 5. It will also decide on a default bail plea of dismissed police officer Sachin Waze, who appeared in the court through video link on Wednesday (August 4).

Waze, an accused in the case, is currently in jail under judicial custody. The court had, on June 9, granted an extension of two months to the National Investigation Agency (NIA) to file its charge sheet. The probe agency has sought another extension, saying the investigation into the high-profile case was still underway. On Tuesday, the NIA had argued in the court on its plea seeking a one-month extension to file the charge sheet.
