Anil Deshmukh granted bail by Bombay HC but ex-Maharashtra minister has to wait

Mumbai/IBNS: The Bombay High Court on Monday granted bail to former Maharashtra Home Minister and Nationalist Congress Party leader Anil Deshmukh, who was arrested in connection with a corruption case, but he has to wait following a stay on the bail by the court, media reports said.

Within minutes after granting the bail, the high court stayed the bail for 10 days after the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) said it would move the Supreme Court.

Deshmukh was earlier forced to step down from his post over allegations of bribery against him by former Mumbai police commissioner Param Bir Singh.

In a letter to Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray, Param Bir Singh had accused Deshmukh of interference and using the police to extort up to Rs 100 crore every month.

He had written the letter days after being removed as the top cop of Mumbai with Deshmukh saying that some "unforgivable" lapses had been revealed in the Mukesh Ambani security scare probe under him.

The NCP leader refuted the allegations and threatened a defamation case over the bribery claims.
