Special CBI Judge Ravinder Kaur permitted Rishi to travel to the UK for four weeks from June 2 for treatment of his liver ailment after the agency said it had no objection to it.
57-year-old Rishi, a British national, is facing a CBI probe over alleged irregularities in supply of Tatra trucks to public sector Bharat Earth Movers Limited (BEML) by his firm Tatra-Sipox UK.
Rishi had moved the court for its permission to travel to the UK for four weeks saying he had earlier travelled abroad from April 21 this year for medical tests and had returned to India on May 18 after the Delhi High Court's order.
The court, while allowing Rishi to travel to the UK for four weeks, referred to the High Court's order which had said that he was entitled to have treatment from a medical expert of his choice.
"Admittedly, earlier also the accused was permitted to travel to UK in terms of the order of the High Court referred above whereby it is observed by High Court that 'the applicant /accused is entitled to have treatment of a serious ailment like the present one from an expert of his choice'.
The court asked Rishi to furnish his contact numbers and address prior to leaving India and also asked him to report to the CBI's investigating officer within four weeks of his return. It also said he would neither tamper with the evidence nor try to influence any witness in any manner.
