BAIL TO SATYENDAR JAIN IN DELHI JAL BOARD CORRUPTION CASE

NEW DELHI: A Delhi court on Thursday granted bail to AAP leader and former Delhi minister Satyendar Jain in a corruption case involving the Delhi Jal Board.

“Bail plea is allowed,” Special Judge Dig Vinay Singh said in a brief order passed orally.

He directed Satyendar Jain to furnish a personal bond of Rs 2 lakh along with two sureties of the like amount.

A reasoned order is awaited.

Satyendar Jain had been sent to 14-day judicial custody on August 19.

The case pertains to a tender awarded to Ms Euroteck Environmental Private Limited when Satyendar Jain was the Delhi water minister.

The Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) had alleged that there was manipulation of tender conditions, as the tendering process was deliberately made technology-centric to favour Euroteck Environmental.
