NEW DELHI, May 18:A Delhi court today dismissed the bail plea of an accused in the Rs 10-crore railway bribery case in which ex-Railway Minister Pawan Kumar Bansal’s nephew was among those arrested.
Special CBI Judge Swarana Kanta Sharma rejected the bail plea of Dharmender Kumar after CBI contended that his release could adversely affect probe which was in initial stages.
Dharmendra along with co-accused Vivek Kumar had allegedly delivered Rs 90 lakh, part of the Rs 10 crore bribe amount, to Bansal’s nephew Vijay Singla in Chandigarh to get a plum post for a Railway Board official.
“Arguments heard. Bail application dismissed,” the Judge said.(PTI)
