A Delhi court today gave bail to two former office bearers of Commonwealth Games Organising Committee- Lalit Bhanot and M Jayachandran in the CWG Scam case. They were arrested for their alleged roles in a games-related corruption case.
Special CBI Judge Talwant Singh allowed the bail pleas of CWG Organisation Committee's former Secretary Bhanot and former Treasurer Jayachandran on grounds of parity. The two had sought bail, claiming parity of their cases with that sacked Chairperson Suresh Kalmadi.
While Bhanot was asked to furnish a personal bond of Rs 5 lakh with two sureties of the same amount for his release on bail, co-accused Jayachandran was told to furnish a personal bond two lakh rupees with two sureties of like amount.
The accused had moved the court for bail the day Kalmadi and Former Director General of the Organising Committe V K Verma were granted bail by the high court.
