Justice Bhattacharyya orders Banerjee voice sample
Justice Saugata Bhattacharyya ordered Banerjee to submit his voice sample by July 15, noting earlier delays.
The FIR claims Banerjee's remarks about loud DJ music were a threat to the BJP.
His lawyer said there is no dispute about the recording's authenticity.
Banerjee arrived at court under tight police security as he faces several cases post-election, including forgery and welfare scheme misuse.
