NEW DELHI: A Delhi court today granted bail to a chartered accountant, arrested in a money-laundering case and allegedly having links with RJD chief Lalu Prasad's daughter Misha Bharti who is also under scanner in an alleged disproportionate assets case.
Special Judge Naresh Kumar Malhotra granted the relief to CA Rajesh Agarwal on a personal bond of Rs two lakh, noting that no purpose would be solved by keeping him in custody.
Agarwal sought the relief claiming he was in judicial custody and was no longer needed for custodial interrogation.

During the hearing, public prosecutor Nitesh Rana opposed the bail plea saying the probe was still on and this was not the right stage to release the accused on bail.
He told the court that the case was at the initial stages and if relief was granted, the accused may tamper with evidence.
