A special CBI court here Wednesday granted bail to an Uttar Pradesh bureaucrat in a case related to alleged irregularities in utilising funds given to Uttar Pradesh by the central government under a rural health scheme, a lawyer said.<\/p>\n
Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) Special Judge A.K. Singh granted bail to Abhay Kumar Vajpayee, managing director of the state-owned Uttar Pradesh State Industries Corp.<\/p>\n
Sudhir Tyagi, counsel for Vajpayee, said the court granted him bail as the probe agency submitted a charge sheet against him without even applying to the government for sanction to proceed against him.<\/p>\n
It was a premature charge sheet and on this technical ground the court granted bail to Vajpayee.<\/p>\n
The CBI pleaded that it had applied for the government sanction which was a sufficient for the process.<\/p>\n
The court also rejected the bail application of S.P. Ram, former director general of the health department.<\/p>\n
The investigating agency has filed 13 cases to probe alleged irregularities in utilising Rs.10,000 crore funds allocated under the NRHM.<\/p>\n
