Kanpur: The petitioner has alleged that her husband died after being assaulted by the police during a raid.
The Supreme Court on Thursday agreed to list a plea for urgent hearing.
It was filed by the wife of Kanpur property dealer Manish Gupta, who had died at a hotel in Gorakhpur, as was reported.
The petitioner's lawyer asked the court to list the case for hearing on Friday.
During Thursday's hearing, Meenakshi Gupta's lawyer said that the central agency was yet to take over the case.
"The lady is running from pillar-to-post," the lawyer told a bench led by Chief Justice of India NV Ramana.
The lawyer said that a blood-soaked cloth was found under the bed in Manish Gupta's hotel room and asked how the police missed such an obvious object.
