Maharashtra's former Home Minister Anil Deshmukh on Wednesday moved the Bombay High Court (HC) seeking bail in a case of corruption and misuse of official power which is being probed by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).
Mr. Deshmukh (73) approached the HC after a special CBI court rejected his bail plea last week.
The NCP leader is presently in judicial custody and lodged at the Arthur Road prison in Mumbai.
His lawyer Aniket Nikam mentioned the petition before a vacation bench of Justice Sharmila Deshmukh on Wednesday seeking urgent hearing.
The court directed the CBI to file its reply affidavit by November 9 and posted the matter for hearing on November 11.
The NCP leader is in jail since November last year after the Enforcement Directorate (ED) arrested him in a money laundering case.
