SC rejects Kanimozhi bail plea in 2G case

In a major setback to DMK MP Kanimozhi and Kalaignar TV MD Sharad Kumar, the Supreme Court today dismissed their bail pleas in the 2G spectrum case.

A special bench of justices G S Singhvi and B S Chauhan asked the two accused to wait till framing of charges before approaching the special CBI court for regular bail.

The apex court said the CBI court can thereafter decide their bail pleas uninfluenced by the earlier bail proceedings.
