The Supreme Court on Tuesday stayed a Patna High Court order asking the CBI to set up a fresh probe team for the Muzaffarpur shelter home rape case, saying changing the team now will be "detrimental" to the ongoing probe.

A bench of Justices Madan B. Lokur and Deepak Gupta said: "There is no allegation made against the team conducting an investigation. We don't see any reason why the existing CBI team probing the Muzaffarpur shelter home case, should be changed at this stage.
