The Calcutta High Court rejected former West Bengal sports minister Aroop Biswas's plea for an urgent hearing on protection from arrest in a case related to the Messi visit fiasco. Biswas, represented by senior advocate Kishore Datta, argued for urgency due to his apprehension of arrest but the court declined, stating that matters cannot be taken up urgently and directing him to file anticipatory bail through regular channels. The police have summoned Biswas to appear before them on Monday after he skipped a summons earlier.
