After receiving a payment of Rs three crore, they showed fake bills of Rs one crore for the procurement of steel from a company that was &#8220;non-existent&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>On being produced before the trial court on May 10, Bansal had fainted and collapsed in the courtroom that day and the magistrate had not remanded him to police custody as he was not medically fit.<\/p>\n<p>Three FIRs, including one against a company run by Bansal, were registered by the ACB in this case on May 9 last year.<\/p>\n<p>Three companies, including Renu Constructions (owned by the Bansals, Kamal Singh and Pawan Kumar), were named in the FIRs.<\/p>\n<p>In a complaint, Rahul Sharma, the founder of Roads Anti-Corruption Organisation (RACO), had alleged that Kejriwal and PWD minister Satyendra Jain had misused their office for grant of contracts to Bansal. However, they were not named in the FIR.<\/p>\n<p>RACO had alleged that a firm linked to Bansal was involved in financial irregularities in building a drainage system in north-west Delhi.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Delhi High Court today sought the response of Delhi&#8217;s Anti Corruption Branch (ACB) on the bail plea of a contractor, arrested in connection with a construction scam.
