New Delhi: The Supreme Court has taken exception to the Central Bureau of Investigation's submission that senior counsel K.K. Venugopal will no longer represent it in the 2G spectrum case, as also the large attendance of its officers in the courtroom.

The court did not take kindly to the probe agency's joint director Ashok Tiwari telling counsel Gopal Shankar Narayan that Venugopal won't appear for CBI in the ongoing case on allegations that its chief Ranjit Sinha was interfering in the probe.
