A Delhi special court today imposed a penalty of one lakh rupees on Swan Telecom promoter Shahid Usman Balwa accused in the 2G case. The Court allowed his plea to record his statement before it afresh. Special CBI Judge O P Saini passed the order on Balwa's plea seeking permission to withdraw his answers given earlier during his deposition.

The court, however, did not allow the contention of CBI to cancel bail of Balwa. CBI had earlier sought cancellation of the bail granted to Balwa saying his conduct requires reconsideration and recall of the relief given to him.
