New Delhi: Expelled Samajwadi Party general secretary Amar Singh's interim bail was extended by eight days by a local Delhi court in the cash for vote scam Monday.
Singh's interim bail, granted on September 15 was due to expire Monday. He was granted conditional interim bail by the same court of Special Judge Sangita Dhingra Sehgal on medical grounds after she had ordered Singh's arrest when he appeared before the court on September 6.
The court while granting interim bail to Singh had asked him to apply for regular bail on September 19. According to the bail conditions Singh cannot travel abroad, surrender his passport, and needs to furnish a personal bond and surety of Rs 200,000.
The court is now expected to take a decision on Singh's plea for regular bail on September 27 when the extended interim bail will expire.
Singh is accused of bribing three opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) lawmakers through his close aide Sanjeev Saxena, who is also in custody, to abstain from voting during the crucial July 22, 2008 trust vote in the Lok Sabha, necessitated by the withdrawal of support by the Left Front to the Congress party-led ruling coalition.
The Delhi Police have already filed chargesheet against Singh and five others, including the two then BJP lawmakers, while the Lok Sabha speaker Meira Kumar's mandatory approval is awaited before arresting the incumbent BJP lawmaker Ashok Argal.
The Delhi Police swung into action following the July 15 Supreme Court rap for non-action in the case for nearly three years.
Singh was shifted to the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) from the high security Tihar Central Jail after his health deteriorated in the prison. The court relied on the AIIMS medical report that stated that Singh was suffering from several ailments, including suffering from UTI, increase serum creatinine, vitamin B12 deficiency and increased TSH.
The AIIMS medical report also said that Amar Singh had developed severe abdominal pain and he was prone to infection as he had undergone kidney transplant.
Although he was granted interim bail on Thursday itself, he continues to stay put in the private ward of AIIMS due to continued medical problems.
Singh had been complaining of burning sensation and decrease in urine output and diarrhea over the last few days. He had fever and it had been diagnosed that his white blood count has increased.
Singh had vomiting and persistent Tachycardia and for anxiety and restlessness a psychiatrist has also been consulted.
