CHENNAI: The Madras high court has granted conditional anticipatory bail to S Srilekha, 38, who is wanted in connection with the case relating to payment of bribes to Dental Council of India members for approval of postgraduate courses in a private dental college near here.
The CBI has arrested three persons and recovered a total of 1 crore, allegedly paid as bribe for PG dental courses at Adi Parasakthi Dental College in Melmaruvathur. Ever since the first arrest was made on January 7, Srilekha had been absconding.
Justice M M Sundresh, granting her conditional anticipatory bail on Thursday, however, said she must present herself for interrogation by the CBI for two days - January 28 and 29 - from 7am to 6.30pm. Thereafter, she shall appear before the CBI authorities daily at 5.30pm for a period of one week.
He asked Srilekha to execute a personal bond for 10,000 and furnish two sureties for a like sum each within 10 days.
Earlier, opposing anticipatory bail to her, the senior special prosecutor of the CBI, N Chandrasekaran, submitted that her custodial interrogation was necessary in view of the seriousness of the offence and the gravity of the allegations levelled against her. He, however, said he would have no serious objection if she surrendered before the CBI and cooperate with the investigation for a period of two days in the agency's custody.
Srilekha's senior counsel, on his part, gave an undertaking that she would cooperate with the investigation and that being a doctor herself she would not abscond. She joined as the correspondent of the institution only three months back, he said.
