Two former Navy Commanders, arrested for their alleged roles in the 2006 Naval war room leak case, have been granted bail by the Delhi High Court.

Imposing various conditions, Justice VK Shali said they should not communicate directly or indirectly to Ravi Shankaran till a decision on his extradition is taken by the British court.

One of the six accused, Shankaran, a relative of former Navy Chief Admiral Arun Prakash, who has been declared a proclaimed offender, is currently facing extradition proceedings in the United Kingdom in connection with the case.

The court also asked the two former Navy commanders to furnish a personal bond of Rs 2 lakh with two sureties of like amount each for their release on bail.

Justice Shali said, the accused will have to surrender their passports, if not already seized by the CBI, to the trial court and will not leave Delhi without prior permission.
