The Supreme Court has granted bail to former Telecom Secretary Siddharth Behura, arrested last year on February the 2nd for his alleged role in the 2G case. The bench yesterday granted bail to Behura stipulating that he would furnish a personal bond of 10 lakh rupees and a surety of 5 lakh rupees.

The court also upheld the bail granted to former Telecom Minister A Raja's ex-Private Secretary R K Chandolia by the trial court. A bench of justices G S Singhvi and K S Radhakrishnan upheld the trial court's order for bail to Chandolia, setting aside a Delhi High Court order, which had stayed grant of bail to him by the trial court suo motu.

The former Telecom Minister A Raja yesterday moved a Delhi court for bail for the first time on the ground of parity with other 13 accused, who have all been granted relief in the case.
