Dinakaran's fate sealed by SC collegium

New Delhi, Dec 8 (PTI) The fate of Karnataka High Court Chief Justice P D Dinakaran appears to have been sealed with the Supreme Court Collegium not in a mood to elevate him.



A decision to this effect is understood to have been informally arrived at by the collegium which is likely to meet in the next few days to formally take a decision, highly placed sources said.



"In an informal discussion, the members of the collegium disfavoured Dinakaran's elevation, more so in the wake of the development in the last couple of days," sources told PTI.



Meanwhile, Dinakaran, who was camping in the national capital and met the Chief Justice of India K G Balakrishnan and some judges of the collegium to reiterate his innocence and to refute allegations of land grabbing, left for Banglore this evening.
