Tahilyani said the matter was 'very sensitive' taking into consideration the international importance of the case.

'In my opinion, since the interrogation part does not come under the purview of the court, I would suggest that the police should take serious note of this matter,' Tahilyani said.

'The statement recorded during interrogation is the property of the police and not a personal one. It has to be in the custody of police. If such a CD is leaked out to some channel then it is very serious. This amounts to theft and breach of criminal trust,' Tahilyani said.

He said there were three options before the court.

'Either we should accept the application of Kazmi and take on record the statement or issue contempt notice against the concerned TV channel or take suo moto cognizance or the third option to consider it as an offence and take action against the concerned officers.'

The judge reserved his order on the matter till Friday.
