A former Maharashtra home minister and NCP leader Anil Deshmukh was granted bail by the Bombay High Court on Monday in a corruption case being investigated by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).
Deshmukh won’t be able to leave jail, though, since the high court has suspended the judgement for ten days in order to give the CBI time to appeal it to the Supreme Court.
He is currently being held in judicial custody and is being lodged at the Mumbai prison on Arthur Road.
Deshmukh approached the HC after his bail plea was denied by a special CBI court last month. He applied for bail on medical grounds.
The leader of the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in November of last year after being charged with money laundering.
He was taken into custody by the CBI in the corruption case in April of this year.
