Kolkata: The Calcutta high court on Friday granted regular bail to suspended Trinamul Congress MP and Saradha chit fund scam accused Kunal Ghosh, three months after he was given interim bail. A division bench of justices Ashim Kumar Roy and M.M. Banerjee granted the bail to Mr Ghosh on a prayer by the Rajya Sabha MP.
The court, however, refused to modify or ease the conditions imposed on October 5, when the interim bail was granted to him till November 11 on a bail bond of Rs 2 lakh.
Mr Ghosh, who headed the media arm of Saradha Group, should not leave the jurisdiction of Narkeldanga police station in the metropolis except for attending court proceedings or meeting the investigating officers, the court had ordered then.
It had also directed the accused to meet the investigating officer once every week and, if necessary, appear before the CBI should the agency call him to its office for the purpose of investigation.
