Summary:
The Calcutta High Court on Tuesday granted anticipatory bail to former Kolkata police commissioner Rajiv Kumar in the Saradha chit fund scam case. The High Court had concluded hearing in this matter on Monday. The High Court observed that Kumar was co-operating with the probe and thus his arrest was not required. The bench, which heard the proceedings in-camera, had adjourned the matter for the day after the CBI lawyer concluded his submissions. A pre-arrest bail plea by Kumar was earlier rejected by the Alipore District and Sessions Court on September 21..
