The ACMM summoned the in-charge of the record room, along with the case file, from Karkardooma Court for the next hearing.
The court also instructed the CBI to expedite the process of obtaining the forensic report of Tytler's voice sample.
Senior advocate H.S. Phoolka, representing the riot victims, requested the court to accelerate the FSL report process. While posting the matter for hearing on July 6, the court noted that the CBI had filed a closure report in 2007 and a charge sheet had been filed against another accused, leading to a trial.
The court further observed that the FIR was not available and the investigating officer was also absent on Friday.
The ACMM stated that she needs to examine all those documents and requested for the trial court records, as they are essential for considering the case.

The Congress leader was named in the charge sheet following fresh evidence against him.
In April, the central probe agency had collected Tytler's voice sample in connection with the violence in the national capital's Pul Bangash area in 1984, where three people were killed. Tytler is accused of inciting a mob that murdered the victims.
On November 22, 2005, the CBI had registered the case on an incident wherein Gurdwara Pul Bangash at Azad Market, Delhi, was set on fire by a mob on Novermber 1, 1984 and three persons, namely Sardar Thakur Singh, Badal Singh and Gurcharan Singh, were burnt to death.
"The Justice Nanavati Commission was set up in 2000 by the Centre to probe the incidents of anti-Sikh riots of 1984 in Delhi. After consideration of the Commission's report, the Ministry of Home Affairs issued directions to CBI to investigate the case against then Member of Parliament and others," a CBI officer had said.
