CBI In Supreme Court To Counter Bengal Leaders Arrested In Bribery Case

Narada case: The four Bengal leaders have sought a recall of the court's order putting on hold the bail they received earlier on Monday.

The Narada bribery case reached the Supreme Court today with the Central Bureau of Investigation filing a caveat as the four Bengal leaders they arrested yesterday appealed to the High Court. The leaders sought a recall of the court's order putting on hold the bail they received earlier on Monday. The central agency immediately went to the Supreme Court, urging that no orders be passed on the leaders' appeal before it hears them. Bengal Ministers Firhad Hakim and Subrata Mukherjee, Trinamool MLA Madan Mitra and Sovan Chatterjee -- who went from the Trinamool to the BJP but quit that party too -- were arrested yesterday in the Narada case. They got bail last evening after a seven-hour drama that had Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee appearing at the agency office in Kolkata, alleging they were arrested "without due procedure".
